We have for weeks now been seen leak after leak regarding the new BlackBerry Venice Slider, which will be the company’s first Android-based smartphone. Baka Mobile, a Bell authorized dealer in Toronto, got their hands on the device and today released a video demoing the unit.

The device Baka Mobile is showing off is indeed an evaluation unit, so things are most certainly subject to change before the Venice hits the market. Check out the hands-on video below!

The video shows off what seems to be your average Android device–power button, volume rocker, micro-USB port on the bottom, microSD, SIM card tray, and so on. However, what makes the Venice unique is that when you slide the screen upwards, you reveal a physical keyboard.

One thing’s for sure, we’re getting closer and closer to the BlackBerry Venice release in November, and we’re bound to see more juicy details as we near launch day. Anyone excited?
