Great minds, and all that.

So my phone receives calls and I can converse. I still have only limited characters available on my keyboard, so I can text things like tooooooon and that's about it.

I tried to command it to attention and make it work properly and responsibly like any self-respecting phone should but I must not have the right skills.

May be time to get a new phone anyway.

Keyboard never came back. I was due for an upgrade anyway so went with the Samsung Galaxy S5. Initial cost not too prohibitive and with verizon's new plans I'll be saving beaucoup doleros a month.

We'll see...good reviews all around but I've been a motorola baby since my early nokia days (the green screen one with the snake game.)

Keyboard will come back. Pressing a key drew water inside contacts. Water inside the key can take weeks.

It could be resptore immediately by removing a 'rubber' keyboard, drying it with a towel, and reasssembling it.

Or buy a new phone.

I can't wait weeks. I'm tired of only being able to text aaaanooo!

New phone arriving today, between the hours of now and later. I should have it figured out by 2015.

If your old phone starts working again, see if you can get any cash for it. It may be that nobody wants to buy it, or you might get enough to treat yourself to a pizza and 6 pack of beer.
