"CNet?s video review has a glaring error? (see summary)"
Pros: The call quality was very strong. When adjusted properly, the speaker phone, ringer and overall audio volume was good. Excellent display and feels good in your hand. Compared to some of the competition you can include expanded contact information.
Cons: Lack of Wi-Fi and No Voice Dialing is a drawback...
Summary: Contrary to what Mr. Kent German states in his video review of the Eternity, you certainly can use the virtual QWERTY keyboard when entering contact information. It works on my unit. This was one his biggest issues with the phone and it appears to be a mistake on his part! Either his phone was defective or for some reason there was a lag in the accelerometer.
Anyway, it is an excellent cell phone for the non-Smartphone crowd. I found it fast, friendly and easy to use. While you may not use all of its features, if this cell phone falls within the category phone you are looking for, I would recommend that you give it serious consideration.

there is a voice dialing feature. it's under the contacts. you dial *08. from there you can chose the option of voice dialing along with other stuff

I'm pretty sure Kent wasn't referring to entering contacts into the address book, rather when just entering a number to dial or to send a message to.
It's true that when entering new contacts to save to the address book you can switch to the full qwerty keyboard, but when dialing numbers, or trying to type an e-mail address to send an MMS to (for example), the full keyboard doesn't work.
