Well I have a Bold.
I love the qwerty keyboard, I love getting email.
I don't like the extra price for BB email, I don't like the trackbal all that much.
I'm also conscious that I have to constantly use my holster with the Bold for fear of scratching the screen and getting lint under the trackball.

Before the BB I had a N95, which was great, cept I wanted a full keyboard.

I've almost fallen in love with the N97, though havent tried it out at my local t-mobile UK store yet.
Im 10 months till upgrade date, so purchasing one is going to be my only option, if I really can't wait.

The N97 qwerty physical keyboard AND the touch screen makes it not a like for like comparison with any BB out there.
I feel it perhaps has all the benefits of the Bold, (qwerty keyboard) with added bonuses and cheaper running. I think also I wont be so worried about putting it in my pocket.

Has anyone any experience with the N97 and the Bold or any qwerty BB?
