That's one of the best thing about the PPC Phone. I can send SMS messages in seconds. I use transcriber or the keyboard and just whip them out. My friends who have regular phones are always amazed at how quickly I can send a long message. I'll write in full sentences with punctuation and the reply I get back will be "R U there?" 8)

The only advantage I can see to the Smartphone OS devices is their size. You're right that the current batch of PPC Phone devices are fairly big. But, personally, I'm willing to live with the size for the features.

But I'm looking forward to the new, hopefully smaller devices, too! :mrgreen:
