Has anyone had any experience with the T-Mobile Shadow with a Bluetooth
Keyboard?

Hi,
My advice would be to firstly decide weather you want a touch screen or not.
If you are going to use a touch screen, personally I would go one that has a
built-in keyboard. You can use the on-screen keyboard with Mobile Speak
pocket and they do really well to make this accessible, but inbuilt
keyboards are much faster to type on and more tactile.
If your going a smartphone, (non-touch screen), consider one with both a
number pad and built-in keyboard, they really aren't much bigger and you get
the best of both worlds and they are smaller than your PDA's.
Once you have decided this, the most important thing I think to consider is
the specs of the phone. The faster processor and the more ram and rom, the
better the phone will run and this includes running MGeo and multi-tasking.
My old phone had a 416 processor 64MB ram and 128 rom: my new phone has a
527HZ processor 256 ram and rom. The old phone ran MGeo well, but the new
phone is noticeably faster, especially when multi-tasking.
Once you have then chosen a couple of phones, you might then want to try to
get a feel of them and decide from there which one you prefer. If your quite
tactile, this might not be necessary. I never saw either of my smartphones
until I took them out of the box.
Cheers,
Brett.
