That's nice to hear.

I'm not sure about the latter, but having keyboard is also appealing to me and yesterday I found out about the new Samsung Galaxy 551
(something like Galaxy 3 with qwerty.)

It's available here as well, but I'm curious if Swype is decent
replacement for a keyboard?

Good...and I avoid using Gmail...


Thank you for your input and, of course, for giving us MobileOrg. ;)


Sincerely,
Gour
