    For people who think that this keyboard styling is new in the slider. Tell me did blackberry make a bold like keyboard, without threats before?

    Just FYI, the small bars that divide the keyboard are called "frets" not "threats" just like the ones found on the neck of a guitar.

    Maybe he was wondering if BlackBerry has made a keyboard like this without getting serious threats from CB members. I'm sure they are getting threats that they need to release a BB10 version of the Slider.

    I have no idea what you're asking...but I do know BlackBerry has made many devices without 'threats'. The entire curve series, and most recently, the BlackBerry Q5 which the slider keyboard reminds me of only less spacing. People are so hung up on the frets, as if BlackBerry has never made a device without em lol.

    I think the reason people like the frets so much is that it just looks classy. At least, that's the reason I like them.

    In some other thread someone was 'displeased' at the fact that the leaked pics show printed 'SD' and 'SIM' on the sd/slim slots.

    So yeah...

    Considering all the threats now pointed out, the dose I'm most reminded of is two or three hits of orange barrels.

    I hope it has the q5 style keyboard. No double typing and a more precise feel than my q10. No frets feels nicer too. Lol

    In my opinion, it's a legitimate concern about the type of keyboard. It was a deciding factor in the old Curve vs. Bold days, as I prefer the solid row of keys with 'threats' between the rows as opposed to separate buttons for each letter. However, the Slider definitely has the fret-style keyboard, they're just black like the rest of the body.

    People will fret about just about anything...
