So i've never had a smart phone before. I don't even have txt messaging on my phone and all my friends hate me for it. I never really understood the reason for it and still don't, but people at work are starting to make fun of me...so I guess it's time to get a smart phone if people twice my age are telling me I'm behind the times...
so check it, I went and looked at the phone and it's really hard to pick the right things when browsing or to use the onscreen keyboard for me. My fingers are just too big. Do you think I'll get used to this or I should look at other phones? I was sort of looking forward to finally having a bad ass phone...what do you guys think? Thanks!

Don't get a smart phone if you don't need it. If you don't surf the web or other things internet related no need to pay extra for a data plan you will not be using.

you are going to end up spending about 30-40 per month for service and 30 for data. if you could live without it, I wouldn't get it. if you have a family line, and your service is 10 bucks a month from a family line, the. it's fine

If you don't use texting or email or web... you don't need it..
but, if you get one, you'll start using all those things a lot more.
I'm 6'2 and have big hands, I have no problem using my blackberry storm with the touch screen. I've used the incredible at the store and other people's smartphones as well... you get used to typing pretty fast... it's all good
just a learning curve
but, if you get one, you'll start using all those things a lot more.

to the OP: i was in your position once... i never thought i could justify having unlimited text, unlimited data, but man, once you get started and see the utility of having information at your fingertips... its easy to start depending on it! haha
also, text messaging is very useful when you need to tell someone something really quick/short such as a reminder or to double check on things, very casual way of communication.
as for the big fingers thing... you get used to it. iphones also kinda tailor/calibrate its screens towards its individual users so you may want to check those out too.
