Well, I don't have any real problems with the N97, but when I did play with it (one of my friends works at a phone store, hence me being there all the time just to play with their phones haha) and the N97 didn't offer enough tactile feedback. It reminded me a lot of the Xperia X1, but the xperia had a worse keyboard than the n97 (depends on what you're talking about).

As long as I can type without having to look (after a few weeks of use) then I'm good to go I believe aside from having a decent layout, it's necessary to have GOOD tactile feedback and be able to spot-type without looking. I have the Blackberry Bold and I can't complain, great keyboard. I'm looking forward to a larger keyboard (like the N900).

I'm sure I can get used to the space bar and the period key's location. Time! I want my N900! Lol. Nokia is kind of slow :P I don't mind waiting as long as it comes out in top notch condition
