Ok.. your post did make me laugh!

Muffinman, I agree. Up to now I did not ever consider an all touch phone, period. I've had a Samsung i730, HTC 6700, HTC 6800 and Samsung moment... all sliders.

I did like the swype keyboard with the moment. I hope I can get to enjoy the onscreen like a slider. One thing though..

The keyboard on screen takes up screen space.. period. Look at a slider when the keyboard is extended, the phone is bigger and the screen is unobstructed by an onscreen overlay.

It finally looks like onscreen done right.. I sure hope so.

Don't forget you have that speech to text app as well, I saw some vidoes of it on youtube and it seems to work pretty damn good so that should help with longer texts and emails.

I was worried about this as well. But my girl just got a hero and i can tell you that after playing with it, mostly txting and emailing. I didn't really even notice it being a big deal. Either way having a on screen keyboard pop out or sliding out a real keyboard (TP2 & Droid style ) still takes the same amount of time.

I think the battery life will be better without the keyboard.

When I had my diamond and tp1 running at the same time, the diamond always put the tp1 to shame even with the battery tweaks and both had the same exact battery.

It may take the same amount of time (which I know there is no way I'll be able to do it as fat if I can't feel the keys) but you still can't see as much.

If I am typing up a long document, I like to see more of it than 1 line at a time.

Plus, I can type without looking when I can actually feel the keys.
