Want something that looks like Motorola’s aborted Sidekick Slide? That runs Android? That has buttons like the RAZR? Well, you’re in luck because Moto is planning to launch the Android-powered Calgary on Verizon.

The QWERTY-slider looks like it has some promise. The styling is cool, the OS is proven, and things can only go up for Motorola. Given their track record, however, expect this thing to catch fire in your pocket or something.
