    The most heart touching was when I carried my passport on my belt, and at my workplace a couple come to me to ask that is it really a passport??? When I showed it to them they were shocked, because that was the first time they saw it in real life. But this is the only good experience with the passport all the others are like: "az meg mi a f@sz????" wich is like WTF...

    Is that a phablet been getting that one a lot and then you start showing them what you can do with the phone and then all of the sudden they don't want to give it back

    The reaction I received yesterday from my 20-something year old nephew. "What is that? It's not a phone, it's a BlackBerry tablet."

    My boss pokes his head in my office door a few weeks ago to tell me something. My Passport is sitting on my desk, about 10-12 feet away. He stops mid sentence and yells, "DUDE, did you get a BLACKBERRY?!" I laughed and handed it to him, and he said "Man this thing is CRAZY." And then he gave it back to me and walked away, forgetting to finish his original thought.

    Our small company runs on Macs, and everyone else has a personal iPhone, so I don't think I'll be changing any minds around here, but it was a great interaction, all the same.

    Took the dog to the vet the other day for his annual shots, got talking with the vet how he had studded 7 puppies so she asked if I had pictures I said I have video so I pulled out my Passport loaded up the video and passed her the phone, first thing she said was Wow BlackBerry makes cool phones then proceeded to watch the entire video. The cousin a HTC lover was making fun of my Passport until he held it accidentally swiped his tigers across the keyboard and the home screen moved, he was at awe of the captive keyboard and studered the remark now that is amazing.

    Many times I have forgotten about the captive keyboard, usually catch myself every time I have to clean finger smudges off the screen.

    I haven't had anything to post in this thread for months, but last night I was in a bar having a beer and a bowl of chili and the guy sitting next to me noticed my Passport, which was on the bar. I'm usually not one to keep my phone on the table or bar, but I was expecting a call.

    Anyway this guy made quite a fuss over it, how much he loved his Blackberrys in the past, didn't know they still made phones, etc. His wife came in and she wanted to look at it and soon I had a group of about six people, plus a bartender, gathered around, admiring the Passport.

    I couldn't say whether any of those people would actually buy a Passport, but if BlackBerry could figure out how to get paid for turning heads they'd have a winner.

    Maybe this is the disruptive innovation BlackBerry has been looking for! Put booze in the phones!

    Ironically enough, I went to an ATT store with a neighbor, she was getting the new Samsung S6, while sitting, going over her new contract, I pulled my Passport to check a few messages. The ATT guy stopped mid conversation with my neighbor to say, wow, look at phone. Then I easily slid the phone back in my pocket.

    Interestingly enough people are suprised that Blackberry is still making devices and definately do a double take on the Passport as it looks so different compared to most rectangle type shaped mobile devices. People are amazed by the shape of the passport and how the screen is so big and easy to see. Most people are surprised at this device and never knew it was available.

    ^^^^^ THIS for sure... plus the usual crack about how I'm the only person in the world who still uses BlackBerry. All in all though, people are impressed with the device
