I have 3 simple requirements for my next phone.
Verizon
LTE
Physical Keyboard
It doesn't look like there will be any devices that meet me requirements as I learned today it doesn't look like the Droid3 will be LTE.
Is there any hope or am I going to have to throw in with the rest of the world and go soft?
The keyboard on the iOS makes my blood pressure rise everytime I have to type more than 4 words.
I spent some time on the Android keyboard and it wasn't much better but I like the idea of some of the alternative keyboard like SwiftKey, although it seems like it could really stunt your flow if you're working on a long message.
I still use a Blackberry because I write long emails on the road on that thing and it works outstanding as an email machine. However it is laughable at doing anything on the internet. I'd like to have an email machine (in my mind physical keyboard) + be able to do things on the internet in the same device.
I live in the DC area and I have great 4G coverage on my Samsung LTE MiFi.
So I guess worst case I use the D3 and hook it up to the MiFi when I actually need 4G.
But I'd like it better if the D3 were LTE or some other device that meeds my requirements.
It seems kind of silly Motorola wouldn't stick that LTE radio in there somehow, but I guess they need some reason for you to buy the Droid 4.
I started to hijack someone else's thread on my quest.
So sorry for starting a new thread, I don't know if thats frowned upon around these parts but usually thread hijacking is frowned upon everywhere else.
