Slide out qwerty phones, or non slide out querty phones?

[JQuill]

I tried searching the forums and looked through manually, so if this is a duplicate from a past post feel free to delete and my bad....


Would you all prefer phones with a built in slide out Qwerty or phones with no built in physical keyboard.

The reason I chose my diamond over the pro was 100% because of it NOT having a slide out keyboard. My old phone was a Mogul, and before that, Apache...about 5 years of using a Qwerty on my phone and I'll never go back for these reasons.

I don't like it when my phone has to DOUBLE IN SIZE and change screen orientation JUST TO SEND A TEXT OR EMAIL, this degrades a phones overall functionality and ease of use.

Impossible to use and send e-mails/texts while driving.

Impossible to remain low key when sending a message because of the phones sheer size, and the fact that...and here is the kicker of them all.......

You have to use two hands to work your cell phone, I think that is a very understated part of having a qwerty keyboard.
