Blackberry is going to release a touchscreen slider, but not any time soon. They are too busy putting out CDMA versions of the Bold and the new Curve and GSM versions of the Storm. Many forum posts in here show their product roadmap for the year and it is not included. Hope this helps!

In my experience, sliders cause nothing but issues .. I haven't seen one yet that seems to hold up as well as it should.

But if someone can make it work, I'm willing to put my money on BB

HTC does a good job with sliders. My experience is smartphone sliders tend to be good, because the companies are able to put more money into them to make them both practical and functional. Non smart phone sliders tend to be there for the "style factor" and because of this, companies don't put much money into making them durable, or even work right. But, this is just my observation...
