    Hey Everyone,

    @Nokia tweeted today that "Blackberries make a great snack, but for the world�s best business smartphone try a #Lumia: Nokia Lumia - Nokia - UK pic.twitter.com/rawHWEt4"
    Only a company who is being threatened by BlackBerry10 would do something like this. If you can go and tweet at Nokia and expose their BS. Only if you want, I did it other than that let me know what you think of this? Can Nokia Lumia be a business phone, it looks to me like a Camera with a phone attached to it, not like the rest of the phones that is the other way around.

    Of course a Lumina can be business phone, so can a Galaxy SIII or an iPhone.

    Of course, they CAN be business phone. But are they a worthy and a good business phone. If I see someone walk into a meeting with a BlackBerry versus a Lumia, I have different perception of the person. Maybe that is my bias, but do others feel the same?

    It's called competition. If you want the z10 to be one of the big guys, you have to play the game and you will be beat up.

    And exactly what differentiates blackberrys from other phones after bb10? Not much after reading about bb10 losing features.

    As for the LUMIA, not Lumina, it has office built in but pretty ****ty PDF support. Take what you will from it.

    Can you tell me what business features BB10 has now for business that the others don't now? Please tell me

    Why is it that whenever BlackBerry gets bashed we immediately come to the rescue? Yet if BlackBerry did the bashing it would be completely fine? If you want to show your support, buy from BlackBerry. You don't need to actively advocate your ideals by plaguing your opinions all over the internet. You are not some sort of space cowboy and you have better things you could be doing with your time.

    I guess if you and I ever had a business meeting I should hide my iPhone with the pink Hello Kitty case?

    There is a whole brand perception behind BlackBerry. I work in downtown Toronto at one of the 5 major banks, and not sure about other cities, but many people here attribute BlackBerrys to business acumen. Also, the security is what is awesome for business that others don't have. My company is setting up BB Balance and that is another good business feature. Also, I have four emails two personal and two work because I work for two areas. I have a dev alpha and BlackBerry Hub takes care of this so well.

    yeah, ok, but the question is should you engage Nokia on twitter or would you be better off to let make Nokia make a fool of themselves by mentioning Blackberry...

    It's business, it's competition, Nokia are doing EXACTLY what they should be doing and Blackberry ought to start taking potshots at some of their big rivals too.

    Not sure if this is a new trend where you guys scurry over to CB to try to raise indignation over any small issue.

    I don't see this 'BS' you're complaining about, anyway.

    I suspect most people care more for what the person has in his head (brains) than what he has in his hands.

    It's true. I'd subconsciously judge the person too even if I didn't want to.

    Only a company who sold more phones then Blackberry can ever dream of and who has a huge rival to the Z10. Former biggest phone manufacturer in the entire world. And not someone to dismiss lightly.

    Also OP this is is the first i've heard of it, i doubt we should highlight the issue and do Nokia's job for them in promoting it
