Sorry, but that's just a flatout stupid statement. The 9900 width is 2.60 inches, while the 9810 is 2.44 inches. So, with 10 keys across each row, that means that each key on the 9900 would be .016 inch larger. Now, I realize that there appears to be a bit more "border" on the 9810, so maybe each key is more like .02 inches larger in reality. Oh yeah, 2 hundredth's of an inch larger, that obviously makes it a "big honkin' keyboard!" Of course, the screen on the 9810 is about DOUBLE the size of the 9900. And as for "some kinda of iPhone wanabe mutant hybrid," last time I looked, the iPhone didn't have any slider, or any physical keyboard whatsoever. I guess they're both smartphones, maybe that's what you meant.
