Maybe someone could make a kickstarter
There have been plenty, some that have come to fruition. The first and only thing I have ever back was the planet computers "Astro Slide", I will never participate in crowd funding again after that fucking shit show.
At the end of the day though they don't usually attract enough backers to really make a decent product out if it, which is a shame.
Unihertz makes a couple of modern keyboard phones but none of them are sliders.
Yeh,i had the titan for around a year and a half. It was a decent piece of hardware with a keyboard that was fairly decent (not as good as blackberry still).
The problem with them is the software and support. The keyboards just about work but aren't integrated into the whole experience like you got with a blackberry. It always felt a bit awkward and some choices were just weird, as if the programmers never tried actually using what they programmed.
I tried to put a custom ROM on mine but could never get the boot loader to unlock as it should have so ultimately I gave up as the positives for me of having a keyboard were being outweighed by the jank

Nonono. To hell with that phone and that company. i bought one and it just now got delivered, three years later.
It's underpowered and a broken mess. And the keyboard isn't the best, which is insane for a phone whose whole selling point is the keyboard. I was expecting it to be on par with my old Sidekick phones. Nope. So disappointing.
Sorry to hear that, I almost bought one but couldn't justify the flagship price... Glad I didn't :/
Too bad it is out of stock.
