HTC moving away from QWERTY keyboards in future smartphones

from www.mobileburn.com:

>>"As a company, the QWERTY keyboard we're moving away from in general."

Zellweger then went on to say that the future of QWERTY on smartphones will likely revolve from newer haptic technologies that are being worked into software based, on-screen keyboards. He also feels that hardware-based keyboards, while still somewhat in demand, would not allow HTC to move forward the designs of its smartphones.

"We feel that putting too much effort into that [QWERTY] would take away from our devices."
