Geoff Goodfellow, founder of RadioMail says Nokia 770 is a nice first try:
i do not buy or use devices that require the use of a stylus to say, scroll the screen down… that immediately makes/requires a device to be a “two handed” device and that’s a show stopper for me. palm/handspring learned that lesson with the treo before they added keypad functionality.
I thought you could scroll with the nav keys on the left. Is that not true?

“Scroll key — A short key press moves the focus from one item to
another in the respective direction. A long key press in the Web
browser scrolls the content of the active page or frame. Press the
center of the scroll key to activate the item that has active focus,
and to accept confirmation notes.”
p.30
“To browse and scroll a Web page, drag a page in the desired direction
with the stylus, use the scroll keys, or drag the scroll bars on the right
side and bottom of the screen.”
