Re: At what point does one say "I need a real keyboard?"
I went from a T-Mobile Dash, which had a fairly standard QWERTY thumb-board to the Mogul. The RAM constraints were simply too much for me to deal with.

So, I went from a Mogul to a Touch and as I made the transition, my biggest concern was loosing the hard-keyboard on the Mogul. I honestly only miss the hard-keyboard on those occasions where I have a desire to write out a long message, which is rare occasion.

In short, if I HAD a choice to go back to either a) Mogul or b) Dash, I would go back to the Dash. Thankfully I don't have to make that choice and I get to stick with my Touch.

The real issue to discuss is how your typical user needs are or will be impacted by device that you choose. If you really don't need everything a PPC has to offer, you might just be happy with a SmartPhone alternative.

Best regards,
