Valuable information. Lucky me I found your site by accident, and I’m surprised why this twist of fate did not took place in advance! I bookmarked it.

Yeah, but Samsung needs to name their products more creatively. The nonphone version of the Samsung Galaxy Pro is called the Samsung Galaxy Touch. The Motorola Blackberry look alike was called the Moto Q, thus Samsung Galaxy Q. The company is not very original sometimes.

Yeah, people who actually use there phones to make phonecalls tend to prefer an actual front facing keyboard.
I absolutely love my Nexus One so I was planning to get an android phone for my girlfriend’s birthday, then realized she didn’t like those iPhone clones for that very reason, so I’ll probably end up getting her a Nokia E52 (or something else altogether).

The point of an open source OS is to have the choice of the hardware you use, so the more different form factors available the better !

Friend of mine is looking for a numeric keyboard android smartphone (No Querty)
that’s not quite a Blackberry, but the device goes in that direction at least.

I can understand People wanting blind controls of their devices. Not possible with all the iPhones.

This phone will be stuck on 2.2 while the rest of the world gets 5.0.

TEAM BLACKBERRY! Sorry, I think Samsung should be boycott. XD

I really don’t think a front facing keyboard is what will bring this handset or any or handset to RIM’s door. The one thing that will make Android a viable alternative to Blackberry is native exchange support!!
