Hint ?

I think you give IBM to much respect. What does IBM even do anymore. They are just trying to stay relevant. I see the apple IBM deal the exact same way I see apples and u2 deal. U2 is trying to force there album onto people who don't want it and are actually complaining about a free album. IBM now out of the hardware business they are becoming less and less relevant in the enterprise and need to hold on to apple tight so they can continue to be relevant. Both these partnership are acts of desperation

Agree with this and the practical problem is people finding them bent after having them in a pocket for a while. Meaning probably small amount of continuous or intermittent force against a leg pressed by fabric! If you think about it that is worse.
The demos in the video and the quasi-scientific test by CR are another, also serious, problem.
Time will tell. Common sense says the other ones CR tested have been available for a while and nobody mentioned the issue.
HTC TOUCH, Nokia-N97, BlackBerry Torch 9800, Z10
Anything about preorders in Germany??
Quick Q, not about to search though 1000+ pages,
I'd like to monitor Blackberry's stock. There are several BBRY listings when I do a stock search. Which is the right one? Thanks in advance. Yes, I'm a total stocks idiott.
BBRY for US dollars traded on the Nasdaq and BB (BB.TO) for CDN dollars traded on the TSX (Toronto Stock Exchange).
I honestly can't tell if Consumer Reports is a consumer advocate or a corporate Salesforce...'cause, something isn't adding up here.
If all other factors are equal then force required for deformation will decrease as length increases due to leverage. The numbers posted indicate the ip6 is less robust then the 6plus... really? The 6plus is thicker.
Judging by the overall numbers they posted on their scientific test we seem to be reaching the maximum size for these materials.
Now if only somebody would make a phone with a stainless steel frame that was a little shorter and a little wider. Maybe with a touchpad keyboard?
As Cj said.....just go to www.nasdaq.com
Then enter symbol BBRY into the ticker search. I personally like marketwatch.com, I find their graphs better. They show buy sell momentum in real time.

I see many more though, what are they? (see pic)

And that is a bit of the problem with the CR test. All the devices are different sizes and the buttons are in different spots creating different weak points. Having a week spot near top or middle will behave differently when their test is applied. As well some phones will bend faster /easier if force applied to bottom while others if force applied to top. That also was not taken into consideration.
.
That could be dangerous. We may not want to know those results. Especially from an Apple friendly "journalist".

BBRY is traded on the Nasdaq. It will give you the most real time. BB (BB:CA) is traded on the TSX, but it is just the tail wagged by the Nasdaq, Andis also 15 minutes delayed. BBRY is the one you want (the first one)

Bad reviews, bad OS, Bendgate, Record Sales... oh wait...
And that's the weirdest thing :-P
Just to be clear, I wrote "make" not "break".
And for completeness sake, since JC challenged the media.

Meanwhile in Dubai....
onZnews | Gitex Shopper Day 2: iPhone 6 vs BlackBerry Passport? availabilityThere are people from India flying in to shop for the new iPhones and BlackBerry Passports.
Exactly! The bending problem was just below the volume down button. CR tested the middle. Different area, different amount of force needed. Their test was meaningless since they tested the wrong area of the phone.
So im pretty disappointed. Finally got the money to buy a z30 but it doesnt support the lte band I need. Sad day

In a market where total number of smartphones shipped globally is increasing rapidly you would expect each release of the iPhone to be record breaking.
What they should really do is normalise this figure to the total number of smartphones shipped that year.
I think the picture would look slightly different.

I love my passport!
P.S. Get at me if you wanna know how to run instagram

Yeah. Apple has created a myth around its products and this will work for a while, even when one iteration fails. But one strong part of the myth was, that Apple products have a high built quality. And this myth is almost destroyed now.
Perception will change by time.
I can imagine that iPhone 6 user are getting asked all time long if the phone is already bent, lol.

Open a thread in the Passport section on the forum. Crackberry threads have good visibility in Google Searches, it could help a lot of people that still think you can't have Instagram on BB10 (like a lot of reviewers)
Switch to a carrier that supports the bands. Happy day
