I have recently purchased a speakout phone and have now realized that it is not the best for texting. I would like to purchase a phone with a full qwerty keyboard. I have picked the samsung corby link below:
http://www.newegg.ca/Product/P.....6875176177

I am 98% sure that it should work with the sim card for speakout but I would like another person confirmation before clicking the checkout button. If anyone could help out with this it would be greatly appreciated.

Thank You
Sean

That will work. Rogers actually has a Corby in their lineup. I am more a Nokia person, myself, but to each his own!

Thank you very much, this helps a lot. Just curious why you are a Nokia person?Or you have any suggestions on unlocked Nokia qwerty phones and where to get them. I am just getting into the phone game so thank you for your help

Thank You

Sean, I wouldn't get in to that "Im a Nokia guy" thing. I have had a really great experince with Nokia, but the Nokia that I bought from Speakout was probably the worst phone I have owned. I loved the Samsung phone I used to use, but my daughters new Samsung is just okay. Manufacturers have winners and losers, you are best to google the actual model you want and look for some actual user reviews.

That phone is only $99 from Rogers. Don't buy from Newegg:
