Hard to remember how excited we were back in March. I don't sense the same enthusiasm and optimism now....

In case you're wondering, it's just you.

[fearmantis]

I think is just you.......

BB Z10 Rocks!

[ibpluto]

I'm still excited...

Swipe, swipe it good...via CB10 from my Z10

Excitement is definitely gone for me. No confidence in the current leadership. They still live in a bubble.

Yep, I personally think they aren't doing enough until TH comes to each USA carrier store and uses the force to grip each sales representative until they submit to dropping their iOS/Droid bias.

I'm more excited now than 6 months ago. I'm definitely looking forward to the future of BB10.

Don't make promises you can't keep. Don't price yourself out of the market. Not rocket science

6 months ago is a lifetime in the excitement business..... something new comming along... unless you are rich and on the bleeding edge.... it does not take much time for the glow to wear off... does nto matter what platfrom you are talking about.... I for one only have $600 every two years for a smartphone so I tend to not covet what I cannot have.....

Yes, really

My excitement level has never decreased. A dent in the world maybe not, but a dent in my world definately. OS10 makes me even more efficient at my everyday personal/buisness needs. So am I excited? Absolutely.

I agree x3.

Add also better enforcement of point of sales and advertising in the US and bingo.

The OP is making a valid point. The general feeling around here before the launch was optimistic. While some people are happy, the general optimism has waned. Blackberry needs it back.

Unfortunately, BBRY will unlikely enjoy another "new launch", "renewal", "overhaul" hype again.

[bekkay]

OP, things have definitely changed over the last 6 months. I even remember Crackberrians making fun of WP and saying that BBRY was guaranteed the 3d place (and possibly 2nd) once BB10 rolls out.

[TgeekB]

Unfortunately, BBRY will unlikely enjoy another "new launch", "renewal", "overhaul" hype again.

And that's the problem - after a while people quit listening. With 3% market share or whatever it is, it's hard to roar like a lion.

[njblackberry]

Let's see what changed.
Six months ago BB10 was coming to the PlayBook.
There were "long lines" and "sell outs" at stores.
It is the Best Launch ever.
Stock was a little over 16.

Is there any question why things are different?

And just two months ago, Q10 was outselling all other phones in France and UK

[mikeo007]

I agree OP. But you'll get used to it. New BB (RIM) products have always been overhype, over promise, underwhelm. This site amplifies the excitement and the disappointment. The rest of the world really doesn't care either way.

[sgt50]

I'm not only thing coming out is a OS7 device and an over sized Z10

+1, once bbm goes cross platform....

BlackBerry Z10 is the best smart phone in this planet, period.

It just takes some time for it to be on top again.

People are not stupid, they will realize which phone is the best soon. As blackberry fans, we should be patient and always support our favorite.

Post bb10 announcement and pre launch was like the high point for the crackberry nation. We had seen a great product, but reviews were yet to come, buyers were still to make purchases, quarterly reports were still to highlight bb10s success.

Only the reviews have been good/decent depending on where you got them. Buyers have now spoken and bb10 launch sales certainly didn't live up to the build up. But the previous quarterly report was the real sore point and a lot of optimism has since faded.

I'm cautiously optimistic, not so much about Z30/A10 maybe but more about cross platform BBM, BBM channels and 10.2. I think most of us already know through the leaks that 10.2 is a winner!

Totally, 100% your opinion only. Funny how 97% of people are getting along without one.
