Hello everyone.  I have had sprint service for years and I love it. But Its about time for a new phone and I cant wait for the upgrade because its about a year away. I have the money and Im wondering on weather or not to get the HTC touch. I am 99 percent sold on it. But my main concern is Text messaging on it. I am a heavy text messager (3 - 4 thousand a month) and I was wondering what the keyboard is like on it? I cant seem to find much about it. And all I can find is the ATT Qwerty versions on youtube.  Ive heard that the Sprint version has a SureType keyboard....is this true? This is the only thing keeping me from going and getting the phone.

It does have a suretype but I'm not a fan of it.  I personally use touchpal..
