Whats the point of putting more features in a cell-phone when the keys are too damn small to use any of them? I have enough trouble with a regular keyboard let alone on a miniscule key-pad where my thumb covers four keys.
The only reason why these "everything but the kitchen sink" phones are so popular in Japan is because they have such small thumbs.
Maybe if they integrated these phones with a better input device, like a laser-keyboard perhaps, then they might actually be useful.

Of course, even with one of these I still wouldn't buy one. The screens need to be bigger too :)
