Blackberries should have the advantage here. All RIM needs to do is license one of the many excellent input engines that are available, and bingo, everyone here would have a way of typing what the want to, very quickly. The qwerty keyboard gives a huge advantage over t9 in terms of Chinese input, but RIM has been a laggard in realizing it's full potential. Also baffling is what's going with the Mainland. RIM is sitting on both a gold mine and their thumbs. Anyone who sees my 8300 asks me where I got it and how they can get one, unfortunately I always disappoint them by saying that I got it in HK. People don't care about the email function, they just think the BB's are cool phones! It has nothing to do with cramped keyboards, and everything to do with garbage input options.
