News for hackers. Stuff that matters.

Are you serious? All Android is is software. It just happens to support a lot of different types of hardware, and the first phone has a dedicated keyboard. And saying it will help more than anything is certainly a matter of your opinion.

At the end of the day, the only thing that matters is the experience-- a combination of the software, the hardware, and the network.

It's mostly hardware/network though. People buy phones for many different reasons, which necessitates many different form factors. For instance, someone who actually used their phone as a phone would be ill-served by an iPhone, but not by some Android units. Same with people who do a lot of emailing/texting.

So I didn't really mean the keypad specifically.
