Same design different method. From a scale of 1-10. RIM gets a 1.

          RIM must reinvent itself to stay in the long distance race. Keyboard is definitely not the future. Although business corporations are still embracing blackberry phones, I see the trend of corporations switching to iphones.

          Unless RIM comes up with something innovative, future seems bleak.

            It's evolution with RIM, never revolution. They appear to have reached the point of saturation with creativity and novelty. Sliders? Clamshell? What is this? 2003? Can't they design an elegant looking device with solid build and innovative OS? I can't say anything negative about their email client. Absolutely the most reliable an efficient. Works as it should. Mind you, HTML wouldn't hurt. But these designs are a joke.

              "Rumor also has it that there will be a 5 megapixel camera with Liquid lens technology (whatever that is) on board.
              "
              why not do a bit of research, gsmarena. You just sounded completely ignorant. Afaik liquid lens is using a gel like substance instead of glass to decrease the size of the camera module.

                                        It would be weird trying to type in that Qwerty whilst trying to balance that huge screen.
