The link doesn't work when i click on it. Anyway, i had a torch before z10 and miss it so much for the physical KB. The bigger screen is slightly more important to me so q10 won't work. If BB comes out with a portrait slider i will be saying bye bye z10. Love ya but want best of both worlds.

I feel stupid, I somehow broke the link by putting a space in it.

That should work. I still use my 9810, don't have the money for a new Z10, but I have to admit, I'm spoiled having a physical keyboard and the bigger screen both. But the Z10 text prediction looks awesome.

At 3.1", the screen on the Q10 is almost the same size as the 3.2" screen on the Torch, although admittedly we're talking about square vs. rectangular. Any BB10 slider has GOT to have a much much larger screen. That would also help with one of the knocks against the Torch, that the keyboard was kind of cramped, at least compared to the 9900.

With respect this same topic (BB Patent or new slider) has been covered by multiple recent threads including a poll. I think that if the Q10 is a success , look for the slider in 2014. Look for a larger square screen than the Q10 (they had better!) . Everyone wants the trackpad and phone buttons too.
