I love the keyboard on this phone. I can text a mile a minute with it. My drawback with this phone unfortunately is the Sprint coverage in my area. I had a Nextel phone which worked just fine where I reside but since we do not use the walkie talkie feature anymore we decided to go with Sprint phones since we were satisfied with the Sprint/Nextel company. (Been with Nextel for over 9 years) I did not know that going from analog to digital would cost me so much valuable. I do not get my messages with my rant until 2:00 am in the morning. A lot of good when the school called at 1:30 for my daughters needs. My husband and daughter also got new phones. It seems mine has the most features on it and is the worst here at the house. I love the phone don't get me wrong which is why I gave it four stars. But if I was able to make full use of the actual telephone and not get dropped calls with it and stuff it would be five stars. I a m sure somewhere here in the USA it works the way it really should.
Make sure you get good coverage in your house before moving carriers. Even though in my case I didn't switch carriers.

Both Nextel and Sprint are digital, but they do have different networks. I can see where that could be really confusing, since they are the same company.
If you have a broadband connection from your cable company or phone company, you can get an Airave box from Spint that will give you excellent coverage in your home. If you don't have broadband, keep complaining to Sprint until they improve the coverage in your area. The squeaky wheels really do get the grease.
Good review!
