Voice Quality with good keyboard

Just got the BB Bold and the voice quality seems much better then what I was using before, but keyboard is so small. I'm hearing impaired so sound quality is a big deal, but I also use the phone for work (email, texting and occasionally web). Not alot of apps. Anyone have any suggestions on whether there might be something out there (or coming) that might offer better ease of use for email/texting without compromising on the voice quality?

Did you look at the BB Storm? I have the S1 and really like it. The S2 is suppose to have a better screen touch and I know the keyboard is larger even if it is under glass. There is an option with the keyboard that you can select which shows you what key you are going to push before you push it, and now I have a word suggest that when I start typing it gives me several selections before I finish the word, then all you have to do is select the highlighted blue word you were going to type in and it does it for you. As far as I know all BB Phones will require you to clear the memory as in my case several times a day to keep your on board memory up. BB are not a use and never do maitenance. They require a steep learning curve but once mastered I think they are incredible. Ausio is excellent I got the Bose ear buds with mic and when I need it like in a store or whatever, they work great better than OEM which hurt my ears.

Thanks so much. I had actually heard that there were issues with the Storm but will head into Verizon and check it out.

In my opinion if there are any issues, it is with either the OS that is in current use which can be changed or operator error. There are so many settings within the Option key that allows you to really set it up as you want it. Screen touch for an example can be set to a hard push or a soft push. Also go to Crackberry dot com and find forums Storm 2 and read about who has problems and who does not.
