LG Lotus vs Palm 800

[meanfishy]

I'm posting this for my brother

He is tired if the T9 keypad and is wanting to upgrade, he tried my 6800 and does not like the slide out keyboard but wants a full QWERTY with buttons, so no Diamond .

he uses his phone 85% of the time for texting, and the other is for his itinerary and so forth, he is also big on songs and doing customizations.

has/does anyone know anything about the LG Lotus? I read the cnet review;http://reviews.cnet.com/cell-phones/...?tag=mncol;lst but I would like to hear from someone who has used/has the phone and done more than just test


I'm leaning towards the 800 but he asked if I would get a comparison
