I'm eligible for an upgrade June 13, and I'm already researching phones. This time around I'd like to have something with a full keyboard, and if I'm able to get by without a data plan, a phone that has smartphone capabilities. (I still need to talk to the people in-store to get verification on this).
I see that the Palm Pre is coming to AT&T next week and hear that gets decent reviews.

See, I've found the opposite. Everyone I know with a "push-up" phone (where the keypad is hidden) has had problems with it breaking. Usually it's that the two pieces become quickly disconnected (i.e., the cheap plastic snaps).
I throw my phone around eight ways from Sunday -- it's in with pens, keys, stopwatches, a camera, my wallet (which has a magnetic clasp), paper clips, food...I have way too much sh*t in my purse, BTW... -- and it's held up wonderfully. Plus, there are fun different backings you can pick to customize it. I have the black one (standard) and the lime green one
My current phone is a regular slider phone (the LG Shine), so I'm used to the slide, but i'm glad to hear the openness of the keypad isn't prone to yuck.
How do you like the keypad? Easy to text on?

I'm probably the wrong person to ask about that because I used to have the kind of phone where you had to hit each number key a dozen times to get to the letter you wanted. It used to take me 5 minutes to respond to a short text. :P
If you like the slide phone, then the Pre is probably a safe bet for you. I've never had one and I've always been steered away by my friends. I'm kind of a sheep like that.

On my side of the state, they make get the data plan now for all the blackberry's. I have the Samsung Impression. I've owned it since January and had no problems. The only thing I would recommend is getting a screen protector. I now have a small scratch on the screen b/c I always just throw my phone in my purse. I have a screen protector on my phone and it doesn't prevent me from doing anything different.

I love my iphone and don't have most of the issues people seem to complain about. But that's just me!
no data plan just a texting plan
I love the keypad. No problems so far.
Edit: It had the biggest buttons compared to the others I was looking at.
