Hi all,
i have a Qtek 8010 SmartPhone but i would like to buy a PockePc Phone  
Edition.
My only problem is that i would like to have one with a "normal" phone  
keyboard not a qwerty keyboard.
I know that there is the ASUS P625 but i don't know any other model.
Could some one help me ??
Thanks in advance

Are you talking about "T9" predictive text input?

If so, I have looked for this but not found much information... the
jasjar (and possibly other imate devices) have a "Keypad" input option
that works on the T9 concept and I liked it a lot... when I used it, I
used the touchscreen rather than keypad buttons, but would assume it
would work using the embedded number pad on the keyboard.

No,
what i mean is tabout the presence of a qwerty keyboard instead a "phone"  
keypad.
I know that is not confortable to use a PPC as a Phone despite various  
enhancement.
I would to have the power of a Pocket PC and the easy of use of a Phone.
Thanks

There's probably a ppc-pe out there with "just" the phonepad, but I
don't know of one.

In addition to the phone screen presenting a finger friendly phone pad,
when the phone pad is up, if you have to have tactile feedback, the
hardware "qwerty" keyboard should toggle so that the embedded numbers
form a mini phone keypad and work with the call/end buttons on the phone.

Take a search for the Asus P525. I think you'll like it.

Hi,

You should check the Samsung model. To my knowledge, they only have three
models with WM installed. But the one they have with the phone pad is WM2003
S.E.
