I just handled a Z10 and I liked it
A very friendly RIM employee had a "Dev" t-shirt on in my hotel and when I said I was looking forward to the launch at the end of this month he showed me his Z10 for a few minutes. I loved the keyboard, screen, size, thickness and quality feel. It looks like a winner to me and I think I will opt for it as a replacement to my 9900 rather than the one with keys.
He showed me the time shifting camera which was amazing. Strange it only seems to be 5Mb though.
My one nagging thought was that it crashed when he was showing it to me. Naturally it was not final release software but we are very close to launch and I do worry about it being reliable.
My contract is up in September so there should be plenty of bug fixing before then.
I couldn't help asking when I could get one in the UK. I won't betray his confidence but I was very pleased with his answer. Similarly, I was happy to hear I won't have to wait a year for my Playbook to have BB10.
He was a very nice chap, very open and friendly, and very confident in RIM's future.
Yay!

So we can expect a beta within a month after launch :D I like it. Congrats on getting to fondle the device I dream about night and day. I do not know you but I hate you right now ;) jk
