It's as excellent phone for people who love text messaging and the existing full QWERTY keyboard is a joy to use. Even though it has its own issues like no separate call log and few others, it's a good phone to use.
I'm in love with this phone since I bought it. Keyboard provided is very comfortable to use. I know it does suffer from some bugs like the phone gets locked up when on a PC site and even we can't download ringtones from other sites apart from ones provided by Sprint, but it makes for a decent phone to use.
Well built, solid body with solid feel in hand. Very large screen and even the provided qwerty keyboard is easy to use without any difficulties. One click interface from Sprint is very easy to use with EV-DO, stereo Bluetooth and GPS features. No dedicated keys for music player, it's a bit disappointing.
