I was looking at GSMarena and there have not been a QWERTY phone in YEARS!!!, now i know touch is good now a days but i HATE when you use it you loose up to 50% of the screen.
I don't think I have ever read a comment so true on this forum in the years I've been lurking around.

I currently need a new phone. My n900 isn't able to make calls anymore so I use it as a tablet together with my good old nokia 3410 to make calls. Last weekend I went to the store because I decided I needed a better solution than using 2 devices of which one is simply ancient. But I couldn't do it. I checked every Android device (I don't go near iOS stuff) but I just simply hate them. There is no other word for it. I hate what the market is dishing out to people these days. It's unappealing bling which for some reason keeps getting bigger and in the meantime this diseased ecosystem is also growing and growing serving advertisments in exchange for personal data on the unsuspecting crowd.
I waited years before I upgraded from a nokia 3410 to the n900 because I felt it was the only thing out there that connected with my needs in such a device.
Now my money is on the Neo900 to deliver the same experience. I suspect it will be a cold day in hell when one of the current big companies will ever turn from their chosen path and start making a device that people actually want instead of making crap devices and making people think they want them.

Sorry for my very off-topic rant . Back to work so I will actually be able to afford this really cool device.
