What type of phone is Liam Neeson using with a keyboard? Just wondering. I'm aware of props being built for films,.. I used to do it. Often product placement will give the Prop Master products that aren't for sale yet..
This is the trailer for "Non Stop".

Re: Smart Phone Geeks
The phone buttons (versus a home button) looks dated for it to be a product placement.
Could be an old LG Versa

I think it's a Droid.

Droid keyboards slide, the one in the trailer definitely flipped.

Obviously a movie prop. I just hate 'touch' screens.

Re: Smart Phone Geeks
Last three phones had keyboards (Samsung Moment and Epic on Sprint and Droid 3 on Verizon). I really liked being able to type on the phone while being able to see the whole screen, meaning there was not a kweyboard on the touch screen.
Since then, I upgraded to a Galaxy S4, which does not have a keyboard. I have to admit, I'm faster with the touch screen, but also make more typos (or more screwy autocorrects)
Since none of the current crop of cell phones have both a large screen (about 5") and a keyboard, the larger screen wins out with me. If I really want a keyboard, there are actually several 3rd party bluetooth keyboards I could get that are made for the phone.

And I'll add a +1 to Pinky's suggestion of Swift Key. Works great on the galaxy. Good word prediction...
