I predict that BlackBerry will continue to make hand sets in the same manner as the Priv...but will use other bb10 phones' form factor!

We will see an android successor to the Q10, Classic, Passport and will probably the Bold!

Imagine an android powered Bold 9900 with current specs and that classic small hand set!

I predict loads of threads like this one popping up in the foreseeable future...

But this one was the first. There are many posts broadcasting the EOL of certain BlackBerry handsets as well as bb10.

But no one mentioned my scenario.

I highly doubt it. Android is not built for square screens and something like the Classic probably wouldn't sell well in the Android market. Those people who have a Classic mostly don't want Android, plus, as many of them are enterprise phones, Android might not even be an option.

I'd say we'll see Android in the consumer market and BB10 in the enterprise market.

I wouldn't bet a penny on that happening.

I'm sure something like screen size can be remedied very quickly.

Hey, a penny just for fun won't hurt you... :-)

OK, then I'm in for a nickel!

A penny can hurt you if you drop it off a building. I'm surprised this topic isn't more popular. Perhaps due to the weekend.

Yeah, a penny is ~ two cents, right? ;-)

I still stick by my prediction. If BlackBerry is making money with hand sets sold to the consumer, there's no reason not to offer hybrid OS versions of Passport, Classic, Q10 and whatever else they imagine.

I don't like it, I prefer bb10. But we fan boys don't direct BlackBerry. The consumer market outweighs the fan boy market.

BB is making REVENUE from the phones sold, but they have never made a single penny of PROFIT from BB10 phones - by my estimation, they have lost $8-9 billion dollars net on the whole BB10 project (including the Playbook, which was partially R&D for BB10). So, no, don't expect them to invest any more money than absolutely necessary on phones already sold.
