Then again these conclusions that people come to can't really be taken seriously unless the said people (including myself) have had a proper hands on go of it.
I think we will find with the onyx that the size of the device in combination with the style of keyboard will work just fine, but will require getting used to for a number of people depending on the size of their hands, but I am sure that anyone who has used a lot of different models of blackberry have gone through just that learning curve each time as you do get so used to your current keyboard e.g. it took me a while to get used to the small keys on my 8900 after having had a bold before that since they were also slightly different from the curve I had used before that.
