That's a fair enough concern - I'm not quite as big and I've adjusted to the 7100 keyboard.. I haven't tried the 8100 as no one here (Aus) is carrying them - even though, i wouldn't touch a Suretype again. Suretype and equ. works fine for Mobiles because SMSs have a limited vocab, but emails have such a broad vocab, that Suretype just annoys me.

If the button are as per the screens so far, they'll be raised and surprising easily to write with (*hopefully!*)
