Forget all this miniaturization stuff. Big hands need big keyboards!

Much more ergonomic than the traditional "squared-off" keyboard. There are a few desktop keyboard out there with keys oriented in an angled fashion and a slightly curved surface. It takes a few minutes to get used to, but the ergonomic benefit is unbelievable. I don't know why those types of keyboard aren't more popular (maybe its the fact that the keys are split down the middle to allow for the angled effect. Actually, I think it’s a great idea.

It's a young/hip design, not RIM's average user. I think this design will tank if they actually go through with this. It’s a young/hip design, not RIM’s average user.
