I actually prefer that the G1 has a fixed part that remains next to the keyboard when opened. That way you can have easy access to a directional pad (or trackball in the G1 case). May I point out the Xperia keyboard doesn't even have directional arrow keys.
Moreover, the G1's physical keys are a lot easier and comfortable than the triangular fashionable Xperia keys. BoyGenius thinks so, WMexperts think so, and Unwired.net thinks so too. It ONLY serves a fashion purpose, and sacrifices functionality.
Speaking of fashion, of course the overall look of the G1 is not quite as slick as the Xperia. But with next iterations (G2,3,4) I'm sure they'll reach the balance of function (physical keys still next to open keyboard) and fashion (the lip doesn't look like... a lip) and it will be a magnificent device all-around.
the xperia has a track pad too.
Yes but it's not fixed next to the keyboard when it's open, which was the whole point I was making.
