Here is what Kevin had to say about the Typo.
The Typo keyboard is a little narrower than the physical keyboard on the Q10 or Bold 9900, but I found it easy enough to adjust to. It’s still wide enough that I can type quick with two thumbs.
A slider will be a compromise, the payoff is the larger screen and the tradeoff will be a slightly narrower keyboard ( presumably).

I'm not totaly saying that... If you have look in other topics, I was talking thai I wanted the Q30 to be a slider, that would be the only way to have a big screen and physical keybaord, they just have to get the ergonomics right.... I'm totaly in for a good slider, if is made right, it could be way better than my Q10. Everybody now wants a big screen, so for me, the only way of having a apealing phsysical keyboard phone is with a slider.
Nokia had a bunch of sliders, and most of them were as ergonomic as the "normal phones", but somehow the torch was a great device, but it didn't feel the same as a the "normal" blackberrys at the time.
Since Chen is a physical keyboard fan, I'm sure would make a sensational slider
