I am always in search of the perfect phone. My preference changes from front facing keyboard to slider as often as my wife buys shoes. When the i-mate Kjam came out a few years ago, I was all over it and fell in love with the slide out full qwerty keyboard. Then came the BlackJack, the Moto Q, and the Palm Treo 750. I loved those too. Very good for email replies and such. I carried the BlackJack and the Palm Treo for quite a while before going back to another slider, the AT&T Tilt. Right now I am in love with the Tilt still and I am eagerly awaiting the Xperia. I didn't much like the iPhones text entry nor the HTC Touch. The T9 input on the HTC Star Trek was hell on wheels for me as well. So, my vote goes to a slider!
