Keyboard direction
 
I am just wondering if any of you TP users would have appreciated the phone better if the keyboard would slide out the other way. I mean its perfect for someone who is left handed, but considering a majority if people are right handed this would have been helpful. It would have been great if i could just push to slide out the keyboard with my thumb on my right hand! I know its not a real issue... just wondering if there are others out there!

Eh.. Bothered me at first, but I'm getting fairly used to it. Just taking time to adjust I guess. That and some other things, like the 'OK' button gone, and stuff.. lol Sometimes I still go for it, noticing it's not there. (Came from the Mogul)

When I first went to open it I tried to open it the wrong way. I am used to it now though.

haha... I have a bigger problem with the lack of some hardware keys that I had with the Mogul, like the OK button or the E-Mail button, but you learn to adapt with such a great phone..

...What the hell?

Everyone complained when the Mogul came out because they switched the side from the 6700, and they felt the Mogul was for "left handed users".

Now the other side is for left handed users? wtf? lol

I like it much better on the left side. I hated how the Mogul was on the right, and I'm right handed. At least now with the keyboard out, you can slide out the stylus with your index finger easily. The Mogul required more acrobatics to complete this task.

I got used to it pretty quickly. What I cant stand is the placement of the power and volume buttons. I accidentally hit the power while typing sometimes and the volume buttons are a pain in the *** to press when the keyboard is open. Why are they on the screen side rather than the keyboard side???

My thoughts exactly. The first time I tried to change volume with the keyboard open I was like "wait...why?" lol

I don't think I want to give up my mogul now... I love the scroll wheel. although having the dpad on the right side in landscape is nice.
