Fair. The comments below had me wondering if it really is a rare thing outside of romanized-language countries or even just English (as a major language) countries.

I would imagine it wouldn't uh... "translate" well if you'll pardon the pun lol, so some other languages.

I was in Japan in 2000 and the cellphones I saw there had the Japanese equivalent of an alphanumeric keypad, just with Japanese characters, so it's definitely not an English-language-only thing.
