The original name of the phone known as Blitz by Verizon Wireless customers is PCD TXT8010 and now it has two successors. The specialties of TXT8020 and TXT8021, both announced at CES, is that they have a rotatable display and a full QWERTY keyboard under this. Typing messages is really uncomfortable for many people if there is no real keyboard, even if T9 and other alternative text entry methods make things much simpler. In Europe a QWERTY keyboard is usually reserved for business phones, which is a bit strange idea. A phone, lacking expensive business features, designed for text communication and IM community service access, and having a decent price, would be just as successful with youths in Europe as in the United States.
