Sony Ericsson K850a Question

I have seen this phone and it looks really nice. My question is how hard do you think it will be to text on that phone? The keys look to be really small and in a square shape.
Thanks...

PS- Is the release date really after Christmas? This would be a great Christmas Present to myself 🙂

I read a review in some spanish website. This guy who had the phone for a month (he had a pre-release version) he complained not so much on the keypad, but on the awkward location of the D pad (in between the numbers 2 and 5) this guy mentioned that sometimes while trying to hit the numbers mentioned above the phone would register it as a D pad tap and took the phone to a different menu option. The reviewer also complained about the camera not taking good pics. He said the pics were just like those on the k790a.
The reviewer also made perfectly clear that his review was a pre-release version. So, I take it with a grain of salt. However, it could be a heads up!

For the price of that phone, you can get a brand new, or almost brand new N95. And you will have sooooo much more, including a better camera.

Better camera??? Both the K850 and N95 are 5mp's.

I just think $650-$750 is way, way too much money. I'd be willing to pay $500, but that's my max.

While they both do have 5Mp cams, the N95 takes slightly better pics than the K850, from the comparisons I've seen online. I can personally attest to the quality of the N95 because I have one. As for the price, you could probably pick one up on Howard Forums for less than $500. They have come way down.

Really!!! I'll have to look into that! On the HowardForums. First though, I need to work some OT, and get some money together.

I would prefer the newer one that has quad band GSM, and dual band HSDPA!!!
