i'm trying to find a new cell phone, but i can't find the one i want. i've seen the phone once, but don't remember what it was and i can't find it.

it had a color screen with a full 1-9 keypad, but if you flipped it open there was a second screen that was the length of the phone and it had a full keyboard.

i've seen some phones like it, that have 2 displays and have the full keyboard. but i can't find anyone with a little screen and a 1-9 keypad. i text a lot and i want to be able to text using predictive text.

does anyone know what kind of phone it is?

thanks

I just recently got the Blackberry Pearl for T-mo and its awesome. It uses predictive text, and it has the QWERTY keypad which i didn't think I'd like but now I love it.

boostinsidewayz · 03-21-2007, 01:20 AM

i think the dash and the blackberry are too big, i have my phone in my pocket all day, and don't want a belt holster. maybe i'll just have to get a slider or something

DoubleOughtCel · 03-21-2007, 01:26 AM

The Pearl isn't big at all. It's really slim and doesn't weigh much. The only reason I got the belt holster is because it's not a flip phone and I don't want the screen to get damaged while I'm at work.

pearl isn't big at all, it's the width of a credit card and 1/2 inch taller

There is a sm phone that is also made by lg that the v was based off of check out samstores.com in the lg section i am sure you will find it there.

S4toSTI · 03-21-2007, 09:41 AM

Ok i suck they say it is no longer avible but you can probably find it on ebay.

thats another phone you my wanna look at i owned that one too and it ruled.

CleanNeon98 · 03-21-2007, 09:45 AM

t-mobile dash is great all around. if you can live with the annoying touchstrip that doesnt always respond, its a great phone. the screen is amazing, and the battery life is insane compared to the motorola Q and other competitors...its probbably your best bet.
