Its "hello" from me

[cal60]

Hello everyone,
Long time IT techie (back as far as CP/M) from the Emerald Isle . PC techie Windows and Linux . Member of the "over the hill" / "grey hair" brigade . Have used phones from Nokia-Samsung-Sony-Moto(current) over maybe 15-20 years. Like the idea of "smartphone" but not convinced about touchscreen as may be seen from my first post in androidcentral. Hoping to engage positively here.

Welcome to the AC Forums! I, too, miss the GOOD physical keyboards (no, Moto, you never got it right) of yore, but I have to admit I couldn't go back to a non-smart phone or even a BlackBerry.

@PJRed2008 CLI = surgical scalpel. GUI = blunt instrument.

Welcome! ☺
A friend of mine, and young at that, prefers the physical keyboard, and used both thumbs to type at great speed on his Blackberry Passport.

Hello cal, welcome to the forums at Android Central!

I remember the old phones, I still have the last flip phone I had and get a kick from letting my kids play with that old Motorola ic902 (Sprint/Nextel). Picture below.

Hey @cal60 , Warm welcome to AndroidCentral

Hoping to engage positively here.

See you around the forums! Definitely lots to discuss and maybe we can warm you up to the idea of a 2K touchscreen device.
