She even asked me just a few weeks ago, if it was possible to install SFOS/Android on it so she could use this old device The keyboard was extremely snappy and easy to open (at least with two handy, why would I open it with one?). I think the trick was, you had to push the upper part "down" into your hands, not just "up" like on the N900 - and then the slide mechanism just snapped up and revealed the keyboard...
