[Sim-X]

I was in the EXACT same boat you are in. I told myself I would never get a phone without a keyboard. Do I miss my TP2 keyboard? Yes I do. However the screen is so big on the evo I have really got use to typing and the auto-correction on it works wonders.

The only time I would say when it bothers me is when I am typing a very long text message sometime it can be annoying or playing emulator games which I just don't cause the on screen keyboard for that sucks.

Short messages doesn't bother me one bit and I can still bang out a text very quickly.

If I were you maybe just wait for the epic since that has a real keyboard. I do like the phone being slimmer and not having to worry about sliding it in and out is nice. Overall I am very happy with my decision even giving up sero, I am much happier with the phone.

Everything on the phone is so fast and everything on the TP2 was soooo slowwww. The pro's FAR out way the cons.
