I am @BlackberryScoop, and I want your thoughts and ideas of BB10
Some of you know me as BlackBerry Leaks @blackberryscoop from Twitter.
With a very small time left before hardware decisions are finalized for manufacturing, and a little under 35 days until BB10 launch. We would like to know your thoughts about all the leaks, images, and information you have heard about Blackberry 10 from all sources.
Also, we would like to know some of your ideas of ways we can make BB10 operating system better. Hardware ideas are awesome, but there is too little time to change much, but please do leave your suggestions for future devices.
In terms of BlackBerry 10, remember the idea you bring should accomplish at least 2 of the following things and for sure the last one:
1) Improves functionality and makes the user more productive
2) Places BlackBerry both the brand and the technology as greater than the competition by offering innovation
3) Brings user interface elegance and animations, without comprising on professionalism
4) Makes development better/easier/and more efficient for developers
5) Is Realistic
Thank you, and we are also interested in your marketing ideas for BB10.
Keep strong the loyalty, #BB10believe.

I'd really like to see a showcase mode like on the PlayBook to keep all apps running even when they're in card mode. (Especially as most of my music are videos)
Would also be nice to have more camera controls, e.g. ISO to reduce blur in low-light photos, exposure, HDR modus etc.
What I'm also missing is support for ad-hoc WLAN networks.

I think there should be something like Google's Photosphere or Microsoft's Photosynth, for the 3D Paronamic shots.
Also, I would like to see some really cool hardware in the future, The leaked Z10 and X10 (and that Y10) doesn't scream "BUY ME! I'M A BLACKBERRY!" like previous devices did. I think it looks pretty much like any other phones out there to be honest.

I agree that allowing BB10 for playbook before the 30th would be a distraction but I am sure there will be a gap between the launch and phone availability (no more than 10 days please) . In my opinon, that is the time to release it to the playbook. The features would've been explained and highlighted and everyone that upgrades would be showing them off and marketing to their friends. Would also show the beauty of BB engineering and design that a 2 year old device can still be made cutting edge with a software update. Other companies don't do that.
Also, there should be some incentive from carriers worldwide to encourage owners to upgrade to the new devices. Especially owners like me that have been extolling the benefits of BB10 and have convinced at least 5 people not to switch platforms but wait until it is launched to give it a go.
Thirdly, I believe that RIM had data on the previous BB users who have jumped to other platforms. I believe that they should be marketed to directly. Many of them honestly miss the benefits of BB but like the benefits (apps, cool factor etc) of the patforms they have switched to. For at least 5 months BB10 will be the cat's pajamas, grab their attention then showing how much fun can be had from your powerful working device.

After pressing the dot button, the keyboard already offers different suggestions above the appropriate keys on the latest developer build.

This is very handy, especially on the newer screens that can display very tiny characters. An alternative to zooming the whole screen would be to bring up a magnifying glass that could be slid around. This is obviously for screen displays that don't already have a pinch-to-zoom. Some developers have certain important elements in their UI's that are devilishly small.
That's already available on the DevAlpha - use pinch to zoom to change the magnification, use two fingers to move the screen around, slide down from the top with two fingers to deactivate or activate it again.
