Telus Smartphones

So, I'm looking at upgrading soon... still debating between an iPhone 4 or an Android phone. iPhone is a known quantity (wife has one)... Android, I've only played with briefly. Please, no debates on one platform vs. the other, I have my own thoughts on that.

The one thing that really puts me off the iPhone is that I can't stand the touchscreen soft keyboard -it just can't keep up with my typing. I do like the hard keyboard on my older HTC and would prefer to go with that option, but Telus's only options there are the LG Shine Plus, or a range of Blackberries (I have NO interest in getting a Blackberry).

So, anyone have an LG Shine? Any thoughts on it?

And that aside, if I decide to just suck it up and forgo the hard keyboard, what are thoughts on some of their other offerings? I'd love to go 4G, which narrows the options to:
Samsung Galaxy S Fascinate
Samsung Galaxy Apollo
Nexus S
Motorola Defy
HTC Desire
HTC Desire HD
LG Optimus One
LG Shine Plus

(There are a few Windows phones as well, but I don't want to go there either).

Shine Plus actually seems to fit ALL the option categories - Android, 4G, WiFi, International Roaming, Touchscreen, QWERTY keyboard, "High quality camera", and memory slot.

Telus's phones are all listed here: http://www.telusmobility.com/en/BC/s...CC4smartphones
