Default Tour looks great.........but
Okay I know the tour looks great and it will probably be a better phone than the 8330 curve but is there anyone else out there like me who really likes the keyboard on the curve? I know the keyboard is "suppose" to be better on the tour but I feel as if I would hit two buttons at once sometimes!!! I am holding out hoping that we will c an updated version of the curve for cdma within the next year!

I have used the Curve and the 8830 alot. I cannot stand typing on the curve, but the 8830, with the buttons all together and with ridges, it is amazing. The Tour looks similar to the 8830, so I am happy.

It sounds to me like you should give it a shot. Can't knock something until you've tried it yourself.

I have the 8330 Curve and really don't like the keyboard on it. Now since the Tour's keyboard will be very similar to the Bold I went to At&t to try a Bold and fell in love with the keyboard on it. Needless to say I will be waiting in line on Sunday...

I find it easy to type on my Curve as well and I do like the keyboard on the Curve.

Getting the Tour will be a change and I will adapt to the new keyboard. Not an issue for me...

The keyboard on the tour is almost the same as the 8830 and after using the 8830 for a couple years I cant see myself using another phone's keyboard

I agree with all previous posters, the Tours keyboard will definately be the superior of the two.

Hmmmmm, sounds like I should play with the tour first then!! I have never used that style of keyboard? Is there anyone out there that did go from the curve to the 8830 or bold type keyboard and didn't like it?

The Tour seems to be a beast. I do not think the keyboard will be an issue.
