> What makes both keyboards great is the spacing around each key. Other phones like the original Motorola Droid crammed the keyboard into the smallest space possible, and there was no space between the keys.
Hm, in my experience it's just the overall size of the keyboard or perhaps size of the keys including any spacing. My previous phone was a Blackberry Pearl 8100, which had a half-QWERTY keyboard with keys large even by Blackberry standards (http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/41Obn3GQp-L._AA280_.jp..., phone width is 50 mm / 2 in). The keys have no spacing between them other than the ridges formed by separate buttons, but were pretty easy to feel out under my thumbs due to their shape and size. I rarely missed a key.
