Why?

I'm not disagreeing with you. I'm just not sure why this is
important. I would think I could type faster, even using these non-
buttons that will require a learning curve, than I can write. Not to
mention having to use a stylus. And my handwriting is pretty good.

I like the iPhone. I think the UI is pretty amazing. I think it has
too many drawbacks in its current form (small HD, "locked" format,
etc.), but I certainly foresee it being something I'd buy down the road.
