Not necessarily, I really like the 6600 series (6600, 6630, 6680) and the 6200 series (6230i, etc). I still think Nokia has the easiest texting interface that exists although the NEC is excellent in this regard. I simply REFUSE to use a phone without T9 now and all Nokias now include it. I'm just not a fan of the "new generation" of Nokia with funky keypads and goofy formfactors. Frankly, if I could stick a Nokia UI in some of the Motorola phones I'd be thrilled! Honestly, the best thing to do is go into a mobile shop and play around with the phones. Put your SIM card in and try texting. See what you fall in love with.
