Well good for you that you don't see the need for it. Don't buy the device then. :-)

I would buy that.

bloody hell, Q20 detractors zip it already

when it leaks!
I've only used curved qwerty BlackBerry's. The 8520 and the 9810. Will Q20 be curved or straight? Anyone used both styles of keyboard and prefer one over the other?
I like the shape of the Q5 - I wouldn't mind if the 20 had the modern look to it.

I prefer the smile, it's more comfortable for typing although I'm not sure I'm any faster with it. Very subtle difference... not enough for me to choose 1 phone over another but the curved keyboard from my 9900 is better for me than the straight keyboard from my Q1.
I've used both. The curved was easier and faster to get accustomed to it, but you get used to the straight keyboard as well. And the upgraded specs and BB10 make upgrading from those legacy devices a no-brainer. The curved keyboard is such a trivial sacrifice for all that is improved. Especially once the toolbelt makes a return.

I've heard it's curved, but nobody that isn't under NDA knows for sure.

I don't know where you've heard that... Everyone who has seen it says it's straight...

It's straight...

If it is released for AT&T, I'd trade my work phone for a Q-20. As for why I'd want the belt and touchpad - because it is my personal preference.
In sure I'll like typing on the Q20 better than glass no matter what - thanks for the perspective on both designs. :)

Um, I would just brush that off as being another render, but honestly, I've never seen a toolbelt like that before, and another little detail with the usb port on the bottom isn't something usually done on renders... Can I ask, is that an actual image? Or is that a render?
No problem. My first BB device was the Bold 9000. And prior to that just used dumbphones. And even never having typed on a phone before with full qwerty, within the day I was typing super fast on the Bold 9000 keyboard. Bold 9900 was no different, I think I was faster on that than the 9000. When I got the Q10, it took a little while. I could type OK from day one, it isn't THAT different, but it does feel a bit different than the curved. But now that I'm used to it, I can type just as fast as before. Perhaps if you really want to measure it, maybe I might be like 1 or 2 wpm slower, but it's pretty close. I wouldn't say I'm faster though...
But again, it's more than good enough, and a million times better than typing on glass... And yes, I've tried BB10's virtual keyboard, setting up my mom's Z10. I suck at that keyboard, lol. And it just doesn't feel as "satisfying" as feeling the clickity clicks... ;-)
I can't wait for the classic to come out definitely going to get It I use a q5 at the moment and I like it a lot it's a decent little phone.

So, how credible is this photo?

Very credible - From CrackBerry's Twitter feed

Turns out it has a traditional trackpad, so not credible.

looks like stainless steel bezel, usb on the bottom between stereo speakers and a dedicated hub button to replace the call button!

And 5 icons across...

I like how lazy they were when simulating the screen image on this one, lol, they just shrunk the same one they used for the passport. :-D
We see in another photo of the actual device it will not have a software call icon (since it'll have the button) and it'll have 5 icons across but only 3 rows like it is now. :-P

I'm so relieved we finally have a confirmed image that shows the Classic with a traditional keyboard and not that 3-row stuff on the passport...

A question about the Q20 and all square screen BB10's: is it true that android apps and other apps won't run on them because of the screen size?
I really want a slider for that reason. Something with the kb of a Bold but a screen lime a Z10.
But I'd be excited for the Q20 as the next best thing if it runs the majority of apps.
