Wake me when there's a slider.

Lengthwise, nokia n900 style, with a smaller screen (actually this is 4", that's one box ticked, prefer 5" tho), and a bigger battery, and an open OS, and sd card expansion, basically an anti-todays-phone I guess...

    I actually stumbled across my Blackberry Torch in storage and gave a great big sigh. I don't use my phone as a media consumption device as much as many people. I understand I'm in the minority, but its comms first for me.

    I had an n900, it was my worst best phone. The software was often arse, the resistive screen was arse, but that keyboard was god tier.

    If someone made a modernised version without a bunch of slop I'd buy 2 today just incase they went out of production.
