E61 flaws you could/couldn't live with?!

This may be repeated time and time again but maybe im just confirming so i know its not just me. What seems to be simple tasks such as selcting text and copying and pasting within the web browser. Save images from the web.

i just came from the e61, dash ,blackjack, treo 700wx, sidekick 3, 8700g blackberry, and then blackberry pearl. I decided last night at 2 am that I wanted to return to the e61 and give it another chance. I updated my firmware without any issues and by gosh my experience is amazing. Ran into an issue with my friends pc not being able to connect via the serial through pc suite. Very annoying but thats another subject. Im just upset because i really wanted to finally settle on a non windows device and something like this happens. Now my only options are the treo 750 and tytn. I took a glimpse at the blackbrry 8800 as well since the latest phone
that i currently own is the pearl and it does pretty much everything i need but its too small and the media player still feels like its in beta. I wonder if anyone has found workarounds for this flaw?
 
Could live with:

Large form factor,
Kinda odd screen resolution resulting in lack of Java games


Couldn't live with:
Pressing the Blue key to use the numerical keypad in the browser. I hate not being able to navigate with one hand.
 
That killed me as well. Other than that the tiny number pad for dialing while driving (which I do A lot) was bothersome....great phone however and I sorely miss it. My wife is sick of her treo 650 already and I've got her half convinced to get an E62 at the very least so I'll get some satisfaction again.
 
I love my e61, but I miss having a cam.. when I leave the e61, that'll most likely be the reason since in about every other way I am very satisfied with this phone.

That's what made me give it up for an N80ie....of course I've since sold it and now have a Non-camera E-50
.....this is going to become my beater when the N95 comes out!
