So earlier today Nokia confirmed they broke my N900 and are unable to repair or replace it...

On the upside I get a £500 refund which I will probably save for the N9..

But till then I need a temporary phone, budget isnt an issue at the moment, my only requirement is a hardware keyboard - but not the blackberry/e71 types of keyboards, I hate those style phones.

Preferably something similar to the N900s style, such as the slideout keyboard on the HTC Desire Z and currently that is a phone that I am seriously considering.

So my question is, what other phones are there in the market right now with an actual physical keyboard?

I don't mind if the phone is a little old, just need it for temporary use to get the job done.

Other than no blackberry style phones, I don't want any phones running symbian either please, which basically means no E7

I can't think of any other devices with an N900 style slide out keyboard. Any help here will be appreciated..

Thanks!

Buy another N900 on aftermarket for 200$, and still you're on winning side
