    Wanting a new phone, suggestions?

    I'm wanting to buy a new phone (cash, no contract deals please) and my two requirements are a QWERTY keyboard (not touch screen) and WiFi. I do NOT want a Crackberry though! Any suggestions/ideas? I was thinking something like the Nokia E5.

    Got a Sandy Bridge Core-i7 and Radeon HD 7970?

    Well I was going to say it doesnt matter as long as it's android.. but then you said no touch screen keyboard.

    I don't want a touch screen at all, I already have a touch screen phone and GOOD LUCK typing while on the move.

    You got fat fingers

    I'm not sure of any decent phones these days without touch screen... it's almost unheard of ( other than failberry which sometimes has normal qwerty aswell as touch screen )

    If you don't want a touch screen you might as well get a Nokia 3310

    I have no idea how you managed to end up with such a small list O.o Anyway, I'm paying cash for this thing. I'm not paying more than R1500, so #@^$ that for a joke

    What I'm looking for is not a list, I managed to find 47 possibilities using GSMArena's phone browser. I want an an actual recommendation.

    The problem with Android phones is they munch data... And if you're buying it cash I presume that you're not on a contract which means that you will spend lots of you hard earned monies on useless data... Nokia FTW
