SureType keyboards seem to be the trend among smartphone users looking to keep the typing speed up, but maintain a svelte size. T-Mobile, the first carrier to feature the keyboard tech in the BlackBerry Pearl, adds another Sammy SureType to the fold in the Blast. Other than the keys, the phone rocks a seemingly versatile email client (pop3, imap4, AOL, Yahoo and Gmail), A2DP, microSD, and a 1.3 megapixel camera, but notably missing from the specs is push email. Without push email, nor mention of any operating system in the press release, we doubt the phone will be a proper smartphone, but more of a messaging phone ala Samsung's u740, LG's enV or T-Mobile's SideKick. The phone hits store shelves any day now for $99 with a new contract.
