If you're a road warrior who sends and receives plenty of email, then these mobile phones with full keyboards will make your life much easier.
These mobile phones are a great alternative if you're the type of person who wants a smartphone, but don't fancy writing long SMS messages or dialling (and leaving fingerprints) on the handheld's touchscreen. It can be awkward using a stylus on a bumpy road, but with an on-board QWERTY keyboard it's easy to bang out emails when you're on the go. Most give you the option of inputting text by either typing or writing. The best part is that these handhelds are only slightly bigger than standard mobile phones, so they easily slip into your jacket pocket. You can expect to pay a slight premium on some models, but if a keyboard's what you need, these handhelds are definitely worth considering.
