First off i think this is a good design for a few reasons. It's still sleek looking, still or supposed to have a functional touch screen, the track pad is cool for the more detailed movement on the Browser and also allows you to have more use or ease of use on the Opera browser, and sometimes you just want to root back to the good ol keyboard lol. What we need to see is a better resolution from what Kevin i believe stated was a 360 x 480. Now they're making this a Bold series phone? I can see where both a Storm touch screen and the Bold Keyboard come together but Maybe I can suggest a "Bold Storm" type name cause it's like a Frankenstein of the two Series types. What is everyone's first takes on the name possibilities and "features?"

Reason: typo
Update Oprah to be "Opera" hehe. Not sure if that was a pun or a typo. Lolz. I still chuckled.
I like all things fresh. Hated the trackball, so I'm already getting this device. I would rather it be the original Bold's size. If I could have that, I'd be happy.
i still think they will keep it as a bold series. since it has the trackpad and qwerty.but that 360x480 resolution is making me think otherwise. we don't know if the touchscreen will be surepress or not. as stated, it will include wifi and 6.0. i don't know about anything beyond that.
1) screen isn't that big so the resolution will be fine for its size, 2) the battery will likely be fine - OS 6.0 will likely have much better power management.
I am just addicted and want to play with this phone, I'll save my judgement for after it comes out and I can play with it. I'll admit I'm a nerd and just love new technology.
I think the slider wil get loose and lossser the more its slide if it is an all plastic frame
I doubt it, I've had two slider phones and a swivel phone and all required you to slide/swivel if you wanted to dial or type, and they always felt solid.

That keyboard is what I wished the Pre had when I tried one out. I will reserve further judgement until we get more info about this phone. So far it just looks interesting. I want to hear what someone with some hands on time has to say about it.
Overall the 6.0 isnt that big of a deal cause I mean we had the same with the 5.0. Now a lot of phones are coming out with the 5.0 so i assume the 6.0 will roll out one other (current) devices too. The screen isnt super big but to me they still need to get a solid clear screen on there. What we havent seen is the back of the phone? is there a camera? Hooked back? The battery sounds like "newer" technology which is cool. Maybe less heat and longer life? I guess i'm with everyone else, when the specs come out then I can make a better minded decision or interpretation on it. I know with my 9530 I want a faster processor and more memory maybe expandable!?!?!?!
