HTC PRO TOUCH 2

The keys are large, tactile and give just the right amount of feedback. The layout is also spot on with Ctrl positioned outside the Function key and you'll be typing at speed in no time at all. Perhaps the spacebar could be slightly wider but in short, I've had far worse typing experiences from netbooks. This is a joy.

Against this - and surprisingly for a follow-up - the Pro2 is actually bulkier (116 x 59.2 x 17.3mm) than the Pro (102 x 51 x 18.1mm) and significantly heavier as well (187g verses 165g) but its slightly slimmer depth means it just about remains pocket friendly. Besides, if there was ever a handset which justified its extra mass the Pro2 is it.
