I thought the same thing, but after using the visual keyboard for a few messages, I can type nearly twice as fast than on a physical keyboard. It's not like the resistive touchscreen days when a visual keyboard was one of the most terrible parts of ones day. :p
I didn't know it was out yet either. But even so...I wouldn't buy ANY phone on T-Mobile. With that said, i know i'm not the only one so that's probably why it's not selling. iPhone users learned and showed the way, that a great phone on a weak network sucks. So I'm sure people are holding off till it's available elsewhere.
And i don't doubt it's a great phone, but other than being jail broken what makes it any better than any other android powered phone?

There's also a LOT of complaints about the DROID physical keyboard. ANY keyboard not a standard-sized computer keyboard is gonna get complaints, though.
If it would have had Apples marketing machine behind it, it would have done much better. Apples people could sell a turd to people who already have too many turds.
