I have a couple of mine. Would be sweet to get some answers:
I currently have the Q10, but miss the following:
1. Trackpad (esp for cursor navigation)
2. The ability to cut, copy and paste using physical keyboard shortcuts
3. End & call buttons with the combination of the trackpad to quickly scroll and select a contact in the list and call for example
4. Big screen (as i had androids in the past and I loved the real estate). I hope with such a high resolution for the passport, browsing should be heavenly! :D Please give your thoughts on this if you can.
5. And decent app support.
Some of the above are clearly being addressed. (5, 4 & 1 - this, I believe after seeing the czech video has been implemented in the most spectacular fashion!! :)).
Now point 3 can obviously not be achieved even if you could scroll through the contact list ( can you confirm if you can scroll through using the trackpad anyway?) as it doesn't have a dedicated call key.
I don't know how much of physical keyboard lover you are and accessed the cut, copy and paste of BB OS 7, but could you elaborate on this? Is it as easy as it was for the legacy devices?
Any other feedback on the above points will be much appreciated.
The perfect device for "me" would've been passport which could address 2 & 3 also. I am aware that the upcoming classic addresses those while compromising on others that I value more.
sorry if i sound like such a nit-pick, but I just love the productivity of the old BB keyboard and I am doing a bit of gadget dreaming. All-in-all, passport has come closest as my dream assistant! :)) Can not wait for the launch!!
Also, I don't know if it's doable seeing how it's a beta product with codes and all, but if you could play around with the cursor, cut copy paste, scrolling through contacts and all the trackpad + cursor features in a hands-on video, that will be dynamite!
