Here are at least two small but practical features removed from the Elm, previously on ALL Ericsson phones at leats from the T28:
1. hold down the "back" button a little longer to get to the top menu immediately
2. the volume buttons on the side were one step / two steps ahead when writing text. Press A to get A, press A and volume up to get B, press A and volume down to get C and so on. Very practical when you write text messages in several languages - and FASTER than T9 overall...

1) The end-key does that now
2) isn't it much simpler to use the ABC-mode if you don't like T9?

Well, I use the ABC mode, but to press the volume up/down button at the same time as the letter was faster and easier than to press A three times to get a C... |

T9 is easier!
For example, the word: hotel
Press 4, 6, 8, 3 and 5.
If you have similar words earning list:

Totally agree with centur.  I always use T9 to write things. Even this post is also written with T9. Very speedy, very easy and dont bother about the correct spelling.
