What Cell Phone Do You Carry?

Keyboard breaks. It's a widespread problem from what I've heard.

Unfortunately, I've heard this same thing from someone who used to work at Sprint. They bought a Pre and returned it within weeks.

Sounds like a good plan. I plan on having my next phone for years, so even if the Pre hardware is crap, I'd happily pick it over the Hero if its usablility fits with my everyday usage.

As a Pre owner and frequenter of PreCentral.net, I've never heard of a keyboard breaking.

Blackberry 9700. Had an iPhone previously, but my fingers and the iPhone interface didn't work well together when it came to texting. I'm loving the 9700. The keyboard is great and Pandora over 3G is a godsend.

FAT FINGERS

Got a chance to play around with the Pre and the Hero at the Sprint store today. The Pre's definitely more for me (didn't like the Hero's interface), so that'll be coming in the mail soon :)

Thanks, guys.

So I got the Pre and it's such a piece of dog shit. Does anyone actually make a good phone? Because I've never seen one.

lol

I just got a Droid...I like it

Nexus One should be the bomb.

I got a Blackberry Tour. I love it but my wife's Tour has trackball issues and she wants to go back to the Curve. I've heard it's a common failing so beware.
