I bought my N97 on Monday. First impression of keyboard - terrible. However by Thursday I was becoming used to it. Overall, I give it a C+. Not enough pushback after I press down on keys. I type much faster on a Blackberry. I am getting used to location of space bar but I would have preferred it in the center as an North American user.

I agree with CrazyPhoneguy. The location of the space bar is gonna take a lot of getting used to. And due to the spacing of the lettering, I am a slower typer. The blackberry keyboard was much easier. I find myself using T9 for most part because it’s super quick and the feedback on the UI is pretty good. Still an awesome phone overall and I am SO glad I got it!

I think the actual feel and so on is fine, I can type no problem, and the space bar doesn’t bother me.

What *does* bug me though, is the stupid period (or full stop depending where you’re from) key. Which dick thought the period would be a good one to have as an ‘uppercase’ key? Great idea.

Apart from that, I’m good with it.
