Although not a QWERTY style phone, the Nokia E51 provides almost all the same features in a tiny form factor. It can be found for less than $250 unlocked, and it supports the UTMS/WCDMA 850 3G band for AT&T. AT&T has announced its intention to move towards the 850 band in most areas, and many areas already have 850 band 3G.

I own an E51 and am extremely pleased.

These are the differences as I understand them. By the way, I just ordered the E71.

E71 - metal body, 2.5mm jack, GPS, US 3G support, 3.2 megapixel auto focus camera, currently ~$400 street price
E63 - plastic body, 3.5mm jack, no GPS, EDGE only data support, 2 megapixel camera (no auto focus), ~$250 price point
