When I die, I am not allowed to give my iTunes library to my son. Screw that. Remember when you could buy an album or a CD and give it away if you wanted? Not iTunes.

The majority of what I do with my BB right now is messaging (it's not ALL I do, but it is the majority of it), so typing and text manipulation are of great importance to me. So far I haven't touched anything that works as well for me as that combination on my 9900. (After a year and a half with the PlayBook, I still hate typing -- and the inevitable correcting typos -- on it.) It will all come down to how comfortable I am doing what I do with a phone on BB10. But I'm excited to see these new phones, even the full touch screen, mostly because of how phenomenal I'm hearing BB10's virtual keyboard is. Gonna take a lot of time in the
toyphone store before I make that decision. Otherwise, from what we're seeing and hearing about the alpha and beta devices out there now, I don't see anything else that would keep me away.Toodeurep likes this.12-09-12 10:24 AMLike 1 - Besides the obvious bugs, crashes, etc that would be a deal breaker on ANY phone:
1. Missing keyboard functionality, which I really don't think will be a problem
2. Lousy turn by turn gps
3. Missing apps
4. If it doesn't add much functionality over what I can already do on my SGS312-09-12 11:29 AMLike 0 - RIM'S music partner is 7digital, which already offers a great catalog in its own stores on BBOS and the PlayBook. On BB10 the music store will be integrated (as will the video store). The UI previewed on the Dev Alphas looks fantastic.
Oh, and 7digital is also Google's music partner in Google Play.
And my answer to the OP's question is a repeat of the PlayBook's launch for BB10. It is the single reason I will not go off contract and buy the phone on launch day. I want to be sure we won't have the same troubles.12-09-12 11:37 AMLike 0 - For me the following will be a non starter for me.
1. Buggy problematic os
2. Spinning clock
3. Constant battery pulls due to crashing
4. Continuation of p:ss poor ecosystem.
5. Constant delays on promised updated like with the playbook.
If they deliver on all fronts, there will be good chance I will be rocking a bb again.

I should have known that. It's been longer than that since I used it. It would seem I fell victim to my own mantra... "Every morning you wake up, SOMETHING has changed". In my business (telecom) it is breakneck speed.
Carry on!Last edited by canuckvoip; 12-09-12 at 03:07 PM.

- Fine then you two should wait for the not announced, no release date known, rumored device with the codename Aristo. Let me remind you though that the L series was originally supposed to make it according to RIM in Q1 2012, and now isn't coming out till Q1 2013. I seriously doubt that RIM will be releasing a phone with these specs shortly after releasing the L, but you are always welcome to wait if you think that is going to happen.pantlesspenguin and Cesare21 like this.12-09-12 02:41 PMLike 2
- I REALLY don't think the Aristo will be out a mere 6 months after the London. Think about how many months we've been seeing London leaks. If the Aristo was going to be released so soon after we would surely have more info on it than we do now. My guess is that it will be out late summer/early fall '13.12-09-12 03:15 PMLike 0

What the bb faithful need to realize is that bb10 is nothing more then taking the best of Web os, win8, Android, and ios and are trying to put there spin on it. Nothing more then catching up with the major players, which makes me glad as I want rim to stay around as I like the competition. Nothing wrong with the way rim is doing things everyone dose the same.

- Yep! I immediately thought about hub when I started using Jelly Bean. The difference, though, is that once you clear your notifications from the shade they're gone. With hub, you have all of your recent notifications right there.scott.slater and Toodeurep like this.12-09-12 08:24 PMLike 2

I had this on my Captivate too so I don't think this is new by any means.12-09-12 08:33 PMLike 0 -
- I still think that the specs for the Aristo was a planned leak by RIM to keep spec hungry customers from jumping ship to quad core phones already out on the market today. RIM does not have a good track record when it comes to releasing products in a timely manner so if we see that phone before Dec '13 I would be very surprised. I'm also worried about RIM launching a flagship device in 2013 that is dual core and I am very intrigued to see how they market these devicesPaulrobs7 likes this.12-09-12 08:37 PMLike 1

What could possibly deter you from BB10?
