I give lots of fucks about a physical keyboard. When the Motorola Droid 4 came out, I quickly used my renewal upgrade to get it, specifically because of the physical keyboard. I type 5-10x faster using two thumbs than a single index finger.
But I wouldn't have done so without a touchscreen, full web browser support, app store, maps functionality, or any of the various things that make a modern smartphone really fucking useful. Blackberries just feel like they're still intended to have character-based screens and were designed with that in mind.
