I took a good look at BlackBerry's entire business, and I tore it all apart. I redesigned the entire BlackBerry brand, and all of the products that go along with it. I thought it might be of interest to some of you who are interested in competing products.
This would be fine for 2005 or 2006, but in 2013 it fails worse than Blackberry is currently failing.
The market has already proven that they don't want a physical keyboard and small screen.
People want a phone that gives them a full vibrant screen where they can enjoy great apps and media consumption - along with communications.
I like BB's vision better, you have some good ideas. I love my Z10, and BB10 as it has evolved. The latest leak should have been what they released at first keeping everything top secret untill they unvieled it. I have been an all touch BB user since the storm came, I won't go back to (pyhs) keyboard. easy to be monday morning quarterback, so I like your approach better.
