One of the newer QWERTY-equipped phones to hit the shelves of Rogers is the Samsung Propel, a slider phone that isn't quite a smartphone. In terms of basic specs, you get a 2.2-inch display, a slide-out QWERTY keyboard, a 1.3 megapixel camera, and some basic web surfing capabilities. In regards to the keyboard, the buttons are 'a bit close,' but they get better as you get used to them.
The camera leaves a little to be desired, but the expandable memory and integrated media player seem to be pretty decent. Call quality is good, the Internet is fast, and you even get GPS.
