My droid has one and I like it. The newer one has a keyboard too.

Anyone know of an iphone that has a keyboard?

Family all have iphones but I still want a keyboard :sad2:;)
 
As the iPhone is restricted to just a few models, none of those have "physical" keyboards.

As you said, some of the Androids do...
 

No. The iPhone's have an onscreen one but no they don't have a QWERTy keyboard like the blackberry's or new droids do. I do believe you can get a case that has one on it.

Wow, I'd never heard that! Do you know where to find them? We go through Verizon.

Sharper Image has one.

FWIW
QWERTY refers to the key layout. (The first six keys in the top row spell QWERTY). So, the iPhone on screen keyboard is QWERTY.

A freind has the Sharper Image one....she loves it.
 
I will say, though, that you'll get used to not having a physical keyboard. I didn't think I would, but after two Droids, my iphone on-screen keyboard was easy to adapt to.

What I haven't adapted to is how dang LITTLE the iphone screen is compared to Android phones, and I'll be going back to Android as soon as I can next year.
 
Ok, I found them on all the sites.

Definitely mixed reviews.

Any Dis-ser actually use one?

Is it worth changing to iphone with the hope of using one? Everyone says to ditch my Droid but I actually like it!

:confused3

Thanks for the reply, good to know.

Wow, you're the first one I've heard say that. Other than myself LOL Although I haven't had the iphone, why mess with a good thing?! :)

What else do you prefer about the Droid compared to iphone?

Removable batteries, the ability to put in a bigger memory card instead of being stuck with whatever size phone I buy, the fact that we have like 12 android chargers but every time I kill an iPhone charger I have to go buy a new one (I've been through four since January and we still have Android chargers back to my first Droid phone in 2010 that still works.)

Better Google integration, etc etc. It's just a preference, and I thought I'd try an iPhone, but now that I have, I want my Android back.
 
People don't tend to go from android to iPhone, they tend to progress the other way. A lot of it is about preference, but a big thing is that with the iPhone, it is one phone. They re-release it every so often (now on the iphone 5) but it's the one phone with an occasional upgrade to a new one.
Droid is just short for android, which is the operating system. Then with android phones you have multiple manufacturers and then each manufacturer makes multiple different models. You could walk into a phone store and maybe look at a dozen completely different android phone models so you could pick one with a better camera, better size screen, more memory, etc. Then you can compare it to the one iphone. There are many more options with the droid phones. If you are happy with the droid I don't see any reason to switch to iphone as they aren't using any better technology and there are more apps available for android. (not that you are going to run out of apps either way)

I suggest if you are thinking of switching phones that you go to the store and play with actual phones in person. Try out games, scroll through text message screens, look at what pops up for a keyboard. Get what you like, not what social pressure tells you to want. You never know, you may even fall in love with a windows phone.
