BlackBerry Dakota – Keypad with Touchscreen – No Slide

I know quite a few people who love to have a touch-screen phone that has a keypad as well, and they are still not fond of slide form factor. For all those who need such a phone, BlackBerry Dakota  has been a best kept secret. I actually love slide phones, especially BlackBerry Torch, but Dakota is still tempting.
