i think you have to tell us what you plan on using it for the most. I have had both phones and definately prefer the 7290. if you are an email junkie - then the suretype might get on your nerves (it got on my mine). But if your on your phone all day long and only use email/SMS briefly or for short messages, then the better screen and phone options (such as speaker phone and phone-like design) will suit you best.
Personally, I like the full keyboard of the 7290, although I miss the 7100 screen some. The other benefit of the 7290 is that you can program speed dialing for each of the 26 letters of the alphabet (m for Mom, v for voicemail, etc, etc) and I think that is an awesome feature that's often overlooked.
