Hi all,

Trying to find an Android phone with a physical keyboard. Can anyone recommend anything? Budget upto around $600 or so, but less is fine. Not for a "power user" (my gf).

Thanks

For that price range I'd recommend
HTC Desire Z ~$550 inc shipping from a few places on Pricespy
Motorola Milestone 2 ~$580 inc shipping from a few places on Pricespy
I've had a play with the Desire Z and it feels very high quality but perhaps a little heavy due to the materials used.

All comments are my own opinion, and not that of my employer unless explicitly stated.

My vote is for the HTC Desire Z. It is a little "heavy", especially with a decent leather case on it, but the keyboard is excellent.
