They did. It's called the Blackberry Storm.
And the OS on the more recent models, other than the Storm, is far superior to older Palms and most generic non-touch phones. Having to use arrow keys, or track ball? You're pick, but for a smartphone with a ton of options, including things like using MS Word... hell yes I want some kind of mouse or fast movement feature.
FTR, I don't own one.

Looking to get a smart phone one day though, if I can get myself to cough up that damn required data fee on Verizon. The internet on my Glyde, it's nice and all, and I thought it was neat and the "real internet" when I got it compared to Mobile Web, but dammit I want better web! That, and getting into the stock market recently makes me want to check the market constantly, looking for an out the moment I need to.
