Default [Wish] Galaxy S II with slideout QWERTY keyboard? (aka Samsung Epic II)

Please Samsung, make this device and I will sell my HTC Vision tomorrow morning (and I *love* my HTC Vision)

Galaxy S II specs are extremely impressive but I can't live without my keyboard... please make this happen!

Chances are both HTC and Samsung will have versions of their 4.3 inch devices with Dual Cores and QWERTYs...unless the current gens didn't sell very well.
Current Devices:

Fido Galaxy S4 i337m | 16GB + 64GB Micro SD | Sapphire | stock rooted | no CWM yet!
HTC One X+ | Black | N. American LTE | 64GB | Elegancia 4.8.0 (JB 4.1.1)
MacBook Air 2012 i7 2.0Ghz | 512GB SSD | Thunderbolt display
iPad Mini 32GB Wi-Fi

I really doubt HTC will ever make a phone with a QWERTY keyboard AND a 4.3 inch screen. They had the opportunity to do that with the Evo Shift, but they decided to make the screen smaller.

Personally, I'm waiting on the Epic II as well. I really doubt the Evo 3D's camera will hold a candle to Samsung's.

QWERTY was one of the major reasons i bought a Nokia N97. Last week i used the SGS1 with swipe from a friend. I know now that i'll not miss the QUERTY!

Although I love the design of the phone as it is, I would definitely buy an add on for a slider qwerty dock/case thing. I don't know why people aren't doing this. I know there are a few for the iPhone although they are getting negative reviews; if someone made a good one for the GS2 and priced it right, I bet it would sell.
