Motorola XPRT
How is the keyboard on this phone? Are the buttons really small? I want to get rid of my touch only for a keyboard.

We just got one in today. The keyboard is almost exactly like the Blackberry Bold, which means it's excellent, but there's also a surprisingly accurate on-screen keyboard that can be accessed in landscape mode. Beyond that, it's quite responsive (owing to the 1 gig processor and Android 2.2) but the interface is quite ugly. Uglier than TouchWiz, even. If I bought one, I'd put ADW/Launcher Pro on it immediately.

Thanks, I will have to check one out. I tried the verizon version and the keys were too small for what I like and I text a lot so the ability to type fast is imporant.

My VZW customers have had pretty good luck with these under the Droid Pro moniker. It's essentially the exact same thing rebranded for Sprint. I do agree that the moto-blur software is pretty much horrid, but there are worse options out there. I would recommend this one over any slide out keyboard Android that I've used on VZW or Sprint.
My two cents.
