  1. phone=a computer with skype installed on 6 Smartphone Keyboards Compared · · Score: 1

    Where I could by a decent phone with wifi connection and qwerty keyboard? I could buy some fancy phones (iphone, xperia, blackberry,nokia e72) but no dirt cheap models. I tried ipod touch but it feels cold and too heavy on the hand.

    Samsung GT-B3410 sounds most reasonable option. Lacks wifi.
