    Can and should BlackBerry refocus to production of just a few (even) higher-end handsets, i.e. bettering upon both its BB and Android OS eco-systems, charging a bit more to increase their staff to truly support them, and giving customers - governments, professionals, and those willing to pay - the option of having the best possible device on the market (something they have been hit-and-miss about up to now)?

    If all other sectors do this - while Apple, Samsung etc continue to focus on mass market, which BlackBerry has also tried to emulate in recent years - seems BlackBerry can and should make the shift.

    I certainly hope so - I'd be willing to pay for it.

    I think if BlackBerry were to keep a handset around, it should be a classic or something mid spec and mid priced like that and only offer then to enterprise customers.

    IMO, venturing into higher end devices will be disastrous. Just look at Priv, priced very close to flagship Samsung but can't sell.

    I would probably pay $350 up front and $10/mo to have an updated, up to date, and supported Z30. Maybe more if the value is there. The only way qnx works for a lot of people is if they have a second device of some sort for apps. Thanks to cheap add-a-lines from T-Mobile USA and the like, that is now possible for a lot of business minded people.
