Its not too much of an issue because letters pop out when you hover over them and are only typed on release so you would know which key you are on. Capacitive screens are also easier to type on by hand.

But hey who am I trying to convince, for me a keyboard phone is vital too lol

About the Sero 500 plan, have you thought about trying virgin mobile if they are good in your area? the prices can go down to $35/month for android devices and they got some nice ones out. If it's the cost of the phone, you can buy one from craigslist for fairly good condition phone at cheaper prices. Then sell it on craigslist again if you decide you dont want it and you'll just be out of the cost of the time you spent on virgin. But you'll have to keep paying the sero plan while you test this because you dont want to lose it in case you want to go back :S

I mean android phones can make wifi calls/surf web so it's pretty much the same as an activated phone if you are able to connect to a wifi. Then you can sell it again on craigslist for the same that you bought it for. At least the older phones now aren't really depreciating as much, EVO 4g/Epic 4G are around $100-150 and I can't see them dropping below that. Not the "top" android phones now but good enough to try out android if you want a real android phone and not android port on tp2

I agree with the previous people about wp7 :S I tried it on tp2 and while I like it and can see myself using it, it's too simplistic that I'd regret not getting an android over it lol.

...I kind of lost track, but how is T-Mo in your area? I only ask because you can get an HD2 cheap of craigslist, and put Winmo 6.5.3, Android, and WP7 on it...:D

That may be true but you must admit that the fact that it's able to do so is undoubtedly proof that the TP2 was ahead of it's time, and keep in mind there is no rooting with android ports as there is already access.
