Pictures of the device, plus a YouTube video, were recently posted by <a href=\"http:\/\/www.salomondrin.net\/2009\/11\/20\/blackberry-stratus-9100-spotted\/\">Salomondrin<\/a>. It&#8217;s pretty, for sure, with a higher res screen and an optical trackpad. We should start hearing more about this soon, along with the new version of the Tour.<\/p>\n<p>Next up, the BlackBerry QWERTY slider touchscreen that we&#8217;ve heard about for nearly two years now. The patent was filed &#8212; or, at least, someone discovered it &#8212; in February 2008. It&#8217;s been an on and off discussion, though I&#8217;m not sure there are any plans to produce it.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, the BlackBerry Magnum, or whatever they&#8217;re calling the Bold with a touchscreen. This is the winner, I think. I know a lot of people who loved the Palm Treo because of the touchscreen\/mechanical keyboard combination. It worked well enough for Palm for a while. I&#8217;m sure RIM can make a success of their spin on it.<\/p>\n<p>This post originated at BBGeeks.com &#8211; home to all things <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bbgeeks.com\">Blackberry<\/a>!
