Sorry guys, it's fan made but it would be great if the Q30 turned out something like this. The Q10 fell short only because of it's screen size, in my opinion.
IMO they need to standardize on the 16x9 screen and put a PKB at the bottom. End the fragmentation. Yes device will be longer but people that want a PKB will buy it.
i literally adore my Q10 but from day one i just can't help thinking about how perfect it would be with a 4-4.5" screen (i had the same thought with my first iphone in 2007, anticipating how great it would be on a 7-9" screen).
BBM channels is not very good on 3.1" screen (browsing pictures is frustrating).
As soon as Blackberry puts a Q30 on the market my Q10 will become my spare phone (or/and jogging phone )
I would buy that phone in a heart beat!! I am a Q10 user. There's nothing like this phone. I'm okay with its size and keyboard. I can write three emails and 15 texts, before an iPhone user can finish writing one sentence in text format. Lmao.

The design parameters are provided by the fan, Ross Cheriton , as 720 x 960. His stated design has a screen size of was 3.65 inches. Smaller bezels might push that to 3.75 inches.
I think if you want a full 16:9 screen a slider might be the way to go. To just add a keyboard on a Z10 results in a narrow long device (20 mm longer) with not enough screen gain to offset the loss in utility. Personally , I would really like the Cheriton design and if it were slightly wider they might get up to 4 inches and have a phone no larger than your typical 5 inch all touch model .

Totally agree the Q10 fell a bit short for its screen size. Even though the screen was bigger than previous keyboard models 3.1 inch is small in this market. Should have been at least 3.5. Heck we d probably still be complaining for its screen size lol.
