Worrying is about as effective as chewing gum to solve algebra

Hm.

I'll see about waiting a few months, see if a 3G one crops up in the UK.

My major concern is the keyboard, when you're texting, can you flip it to the side like you can with Safari? When it's vertical, I can't hit the keys accurately, courtesy of my man-sized thumbs :(

    If you want the 3G then wait for it. Though EDGE ain't really that much slower. I mean, you don't want to download huge chunks of data anyways. For web + email it's just fine.

    Anyway, the keyboard is awesome. As a matter of fact, you can only turn it in landscape mode in Safari, and not when typing emails or SMS, or in any other app. But that's only a minor drawback for me. Actually, I prefer typing on the smaller one, even in Safari..

      Yeah, but I feel like being closer to the bleeding edge in the phone respect, for once :B

      Bah.

      I guess I'll just have to get used to it over time.. Hm. We'll see what happens I guess :D

        Alright, then you have no problem. Bleeding EDGE, get it? Ha...

        Weeell that for sure. But from my own experience let me say, it's really not hard to get used to. And even the first time you use it is so much better than all the times you used an ordinary mobile phone keyboard.. >.>

          I'm thankful for a qwerty layout, I still can't use normal phone character mapping :(

        I go where I please, and I please where I go

        If it's qwerty you're after, I suggest looking at the Danger Sidekicks or holding out for a Sony Ericsson Experia X1.

          I'm also a bit of an Apple whore when it comes to overpriced mediaplayers and in this case, phones :B

            Overpriced? Come on.. A phone + iPod + this gorgeous screen for 400$? That ain't that much. Years ago I paid almost as much for a shiny Sony Walkman -_-

            But wait, you said Apple whore, so forget I said anything ;]

              Hahah.

              When it comes to phones, I've only ever spent like.. £30 at most :B
