Few days ago I read about Samsung’s upcoming SCH-U710 phone. This is NOT a Symbian device, but it does have one interesting feature. What I’m talking about is its unique keyboard. The SCH-U710 sports both numerical and QWERTY characters, with latter being used when the device is flipped on the side. This sort of feature is something that many of us (Symbian OS handset users) would like to see in some next N93 device – so we could combine both business and personal life. What do you think?

Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do. In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.

    Ah, simply don’t like it, its quite difficult, actually almost impossible to use, especially for larger male thumbs, even large E61 QWERTY solution isn’t very comfortable and easy to use and last but not the least M600i has the worst solution ever its almost painful to use it.

    From other side E70 with its “butterfly� form factor offers great QWERT experience with large and comfortable key but IMO N93 with normal phone keyboard supported with external QWERTY solution (SU-8W is the best IMO) is the killer combination.. ..
