First of all chaps a big hello to the forum. I have been following the Droid/Milestone since it was but a twinkle in it's Motomothers eye, and for the most part was absolutely more than impressed with it's specs. Lots and lots of pros... very few cons other than the camera and... the keyboard.
The keyboard, ahh yes, often such a subjective topic. I see it mentioned in threads here and there, a couple of opinions... but nothing hugely specific. So I thought I would make a thread DEDICATED to opinions and discussion about the thing... and try and figure out once and for all, short of playing with it (hasn't come to my country yet), if it is any use for one such as me.
*So, if you can, please answer the following:
*Do you like the hardware keyboard?
*Do you find tactile response and accuracy sufficient?
*Do you find it comfortable with your size hands?
*Do you use it more than the software QWERTY?
*Likes and dislikes about it?
*What other device would you compare it to positively and negatively?
Hopefully we can get enough people answering to build up an idea of common opinion on the thing. I'm looking forward to the Milestone hitting here with it's multi-touch. Hopefully it won't take too long before Sense UI is ported over and then it really will be the ultimate device. Cheers!
