T9 or QWERTY

I was always confused between whether it should be T9 (predictive Text) or QWERTY keyboard on the mobile phone.

I was also curious to see Half Keyboard. I have not tested though.

Blackberry Pearl, Sony P1i HTC touch Dual were few to name with half QWERTY (2 letters per key). Now Nokia has come up with first time with this keyboard in their E55. Seems to be the best of Eseries phones till now with S60 3rd edition FP2. It has accelerometer, usb charger, half keyboard, HSDPA & HSUPA. 3.2 MP camera with EDOF (Extended Depth of Field), 3.5 mm Audio port, built in GPS with A-GPS, front VGA camera.

I would have traded my N85 for E55, if it had 30fps video and 3.5mm AV port. E55 has only 15fps video. 

In my opinion it is the best business phone ever within Rs.16K budget.

If someone is not satisfied with N85, now you have N86 with 8MP camera and hopefully metallic body. Remaining specs same as N85 such as OLED display etc.

More soon.
