What's the best one?
The HTC touch looks dece. But it's a bit big and the design looks breakable.

Bold. No contest. Nothing comes close for typing.

Since you said preferably not rogers, you probably don't want the bold since it is exclusive to rogers. Bell just dropped the Blackberry Tour, it is essentially a blackberry bold crossed with a blackberry curve. Reviews are praising it as the best blackberry keyboard yet. And no other company even comes close to the interface designs that blackberry has. Its a bit expensive unless you are not a bell customer in which case its 249.99 with a three year contract,

i found that im really quick typing on the original keyboard, ya know? with the three letters per number. and since i don't want to pay $30 a month for a data plan, i'll probably get another flip phone

Depends what you are using your phone for. Lots of email, texting, social networking, etc. then they are perfect.

the bold has awesome typing but seems like it's limited to rogers similar to in the US it's limited to at&t

i have the curve and love it, the typing is easy enough and it's simple to use, no bullshit

I have the HTC TYTN II (HTC 8925) and its amazing. full slide out qwerty keyboard and it runs off windows mobile 6 which is highy customizable... the possibilities are endless with the windows mobile phones.... i highly recommend it.

Q9c and Iove it. Battery last for like 3 days without a charge. If you get it make sure to download either microsoft livesearch or bing on it. Finds movies at all local theaters in a second, gets you the phone number for any business, finds the cheapest gas prices etc..Its a sick app. Also Skyfire for web browsing. Best phone web browser ive ever used.
