So near and yet so far: from hero to zero
All Blackberry had to do was design and release a Blackberry 10 update of the Bold 9900 (which I still use today). They kept keyboard and added back tool belt (finally) and optical mouse. But what where they thinking?!
1. Non-removable battery
- It is hard for me to understand why they would do this. 30% bigger battery yes. But when it dies you are done.
2. External SIM and SD card slot
- Why would you put these nasty drawers on the outside (not even Superman). This is a very bad design choice.
Well I was going to upgrade to a Blackberry Classic (Q20). Not now, I will buy a Q10 plus 2x batteries off eBay.
Summary: a once great company, poorly managed by a series of CEOs who do not listen to their _customers_.
