Engadget - With all the gossip about BBX screens becoming more tablet-like and the rumored BlackBerry 'London' being QWERTY-less, lovers of the physical keyboard can be forgiven for getting antsy. Hey, we feel it too -- after all, a BB's thumb pad is as quintessential as Québécois poutine. So, we put the question straight to one of our buddies at RIM.
Galaxys3apps: Now that the company formerly known as Research in Motion (RIM), now simply known as BlackBerry, has unveiled its new flagship mobile – the BlackBerry Z10 – the question as to how it matches up to other flagship mobiles offered by other brands has been raised.
I think RIM is making the same mistake Nokia did with the Lumia phones and that is they are releasing a phone to compete with products that are on the market now rather than the ones that will be coming in the upcoming months. Can't wait to see what Samsung does with its Youn screen with upcoming products and i hope someone uses the Tactus morphing touch screen technology very soon.
Why the S3 comparison though? The S4 is on its way and I'm guessing it's going to blow other phones out of the water in terms of specs. The S3 is a pretty old phone but still very competitive. I'm happy that BlackBerry finally is seeing the light, but they really haven't hit the mark with the Z10.
As for Blackberry I don't think they will be able to get back into the market as they don't offer enough options with the devices.and this write
Maximum PC: Research In Motion (RIM) doesn't want you to call it by its former name, anymore. RIM will now operate under the name "BlackBerry," the company announced today during a much anticipated press event. In addition to a name change, RIM BlackBerry unveiled its newest mobile computing platform, BlackBerry 10, along with two phones, the Q10 with a physical keyboard and Z10 with just a touchscreen.
Geeks Have Landed: RIM have just officially revealed the Blackberry Z10, the first official phone to run the company’s new BB10 operating system. As the first device to run the new OS, RIM have made a pretty impressive device to make sure it runs smoothly, giving customers an experience to remember.
I miss being able to type quick to medium messages on BB's keyboard. I was so use to it I knew where the keys were without looking. Can't do that with the iPhone.
pffft!! well RIM why not have a phone that have touch screens only, hybrid phones <touch and type> and keypad phones with no touch screens.
you know what im talking about - its called variety. giving consumers the option to choose what they like.
Just a thought. small wonder why droids are whipping your ass.
