Is there anything else like these phones but with a slide out keyboard?
Samsung Captivate Glide? (4 row kb unfortunately but better then no keyboard I guess) and t-mobile sidekick 4g?

(double check the supported bands though)

For domestic I'd like to stick with Sprint, and their world phone offerings are lackluster to me (I wouldn't want to use them everyday in the USA) plus the only way to get the world phones at a good price is to sign up for another 2 year contract. I'd much rather save that discount for a phone I'd actually want, like a slider version of the Galaxy S2, if it ever comes. Sometimes I think manufacturers have abandoned us slider users, unfortunately
We all wish..we all wish...
