I really like slider phones with numeric keypads, mainly because i havent liked the touchscreen typing experience on any of the phones i've tried it on and i dont like full sliders as i will 99% of the time only be typing texts and not long emails. But one thing i would like on a new phone is a touchscreen for all the non typing use as i have found navigation with a directional keypad to be a bit of a pain.

The Samsung Ultra Touch\Tocco (S8300) looks good but the interface looks sluggish. Also the delete key is halfway up the screen so kind of defeats the keypad experience.

The LG Crystal (GD900) looks great, interface looks good and responsive but it has no GPS which i use quite a bit. Camera and video play back arent great on it but i could get over that.

The SE Anio has as very limited touchscreen so not sure if its what i'm looking for.

Has anyone any experience with the above or any other recommendations?
