i have two mobiles one is blackberry with qwerty keypad and th other is apple iphone.Both are the best one in the market. The answer to you question for me would be that for texting i allways use the iphone that is the touchscreen it is much more conveinient and speedy.

hi! Really, even when you are walking? That's great for you. Because it's hard for me to text while walking using touchscreen :(

I think i will prefer the one that is touchscreen.As from my previous experience qwerty keypad mobiles get damaged if you continuously go on texting.But in case of touchscreen they cant easily get damaged as you dont have to apply much force for texting.

I used to prefer a keypad, and I got really frustrated with my Android when I first got it since I was used to a keypad. I ended up switching back to my old phone out of frustration, and come to find out, it was actually easier typing with touch screen once I got used to it, and I just never realized it. Now I prefer touch screen. I wish I had both, a touch screen phone WITH a QWERTY keypad. Unfortunately they're so much higher in price. :(

For me its easy to use keypad than touchscreen phones. i have a hard time hitting the correct letter/character...hehe.. But speaking of modern day gadget its cool to have a touchscreen. i think use which for you is much comfortable and easy for you to use...

I haven't try to buy a touch screen cellphone so I prefer qwerty keypad like the one that I'm using right now.I just it would be just the same as long as you practice in typing and eventually you will used to it.

I do have a touchscreened phone and a qwerty keypad one..it's really hard in touchscreen if you are used with phones with keypad..but eventually you learn from time to time and definitely love your touchscreened phone..
