    Wondering if anymore credible information has been released about the Z50 as of late...?

    I'd hang on to my Z10 and skip the Z30 and wait for it. Considering TMO won't offer the Z30, but if they did, I'd wait.

    Hoping that the dazzle of 10.2 and more customer interest will prompt TMO to add the Z50 to their line up at launch and they'll actually advertise it.

    It looks like a very promising device from what I've read about it, even though the specs may only be merely speculation.

    Z50 was not in their announced lineup..... think for now the Z10 and Z30 are it for the touchscreen devices.

    I don't think that the Z50 will arrive before the Q3 of this year.. hopefully around August / September they will release there new Z50 flagship. Sure hope so cuz I may pick a new phone around that time . But there is nothing official so far, only rumors ..

    John Chen has said there will be another high end qwerty device later this year. Nothing about a touchscreen or Z device being released as of this moment

    No link, just the reality that they are focusing on enterprise and qwerty phones.

    Yeah and perhaps that's the thing causing the bad selling numbers.. keep up or go home is what the majority thinks

    Because its an emerging market phone which they said was coming, followed by a focus on qwerty phones.

    At this point in time why on earth would they make the Z50? The sales of the Z10 and Z30 have been abysmal and until they get things straightened out its only common sense to know that they aren't going to release another high end touchscreen phone.

    the q10 sales have not been beeter then the z10 and they are still releasing a qwerty.
    they said previously that the z50 will be after the qwerty release. i will wait until after the qwerty is released and see what happens

    Actually, John Chen did hint at a new flagship qwerty device (probably the rumored Q30) this year as well as the lower end Jakarta. No mention of the Rumored Z50, but in SEC filings last year, there was mention of 2 new flagship devices (a qwerty = Q30 / a touch = Z50) on target for release this year (Q30 in Q2 / Z50 in Q3). I'm more confident in the Q30 coming to fruition, since Chen said they are going to reestablish their dominance in the qwerty keyboard market in light of the Typo Keyboard controversy. As for the Z50, it's just too early to say much about it. We will probably learn more once we get closer to Spring/Summer. What's interesting is that 10.2.1+ is rumored for the summer (Q2-Q3), and that's the time the Q30 is rumored to be launching. 10.3 is said to be releasing in the fall (Q3-Q4), and that's the time the Z50 is rumored to be launching. So, it certainly seems BlackBerry has a lot stored in their arsenal for 2014, and even into 2015.

    I know a lot of people who consider it a qwerty and a touch. Personally, I think of it as a hybrid.

    The z10 outsold the q10 3 to 1 and the z30 outsold the q5

    I wonder what the specs of the device will be.

    I don't think BlackBerry should play it safe.

    Can you imagine a QWERTY with better specs than anything else?

    Your point? Talk to Chen if you have a problem with it. He's made it clear they are focusing on qwerty phones and enterprise.

    Word of advice though, only buy it if it has a track pad so you save us from posts in every thread about "no track pad". Thanks.

    You kind of made my point in your post. You said sales of the z10 and z50 have been abysmal, yes, but what does that make the q10 and q5 sales? They are much worse. Why would they only make new qwerty devices? You aren't making any sense.
