Do you have a preference which way your keyboard slides out?  Are you undecided, waffling between the convenience of a numeric keypad and the ease of a QWERTY keyboard to bang out long emails?  If so, trot over to your local AT&T store to take a look at the 3G Pantech Duo (Pantech specs here), the first Windows Mobile Standard device to sport a dual-sliding keyboard.  You’ll be treated to the option of having both keyboard options available on this unit.

While the Pantech itself runs about 0.9" thick, somewhat on the thick side, its screen size is a decent 2.8", somewhat unusual for non-touchscreen devices. As for pricing, the unit is available for about $249.99 with a two-year contract in most AT&T stores.
