For phoning, the Sony Ericsson is hands down great. The UI is easy to navigate. However you mentioned you text as well, which may hamper you a bit. The keys are a little cramped up depending on how big your fingers are and having a name like Big L, I would assume big fingers? LOL. Well your best bet is to test out the phone, if at all possible to see if you can text without too much problems.
In addition, there were reports of the key defects but those were for the SE W580 models.
Cheers!
