I have been persuading my wife to wait on this coming out for about 2 months.She wanted to get a desire Z because she likes the idea of a keyboard after playing with mine, but doesn't want to have to fiddle with the OS. But I made her wait. Now they go and put the release date back on the xperia pro, but she's still waiting. I searched and as far as I could find, It is currently the best alternative out there (or nearly out there) if you want a qwerty.
