    I'm not sure that this is the right place to put this.

    Couldn't John Chen get the license to run Google services to run on BlackBerry 10 OS( I have no idea if this is even possible to do) , instead of completely going to Android. I'm saying this because I like the gestures in BlackBerry 10. Gesture based navigation is much easier than using the multitasking button. That's just my experience. If it is possible to bring the same gestures to Android I would be willing to buy an Android phone by BlackBerry.

    If they could have, they would not have bothered with switching to Android.

    Apparently it would have cost more to incorporate Google Play Services into BlackBerry 10 than it did to adopt Android as the OS.

    I expect BlackBerry will incorporate a ton more BlackBerry 10 sweetness into their secured version of Android. As it stands, it's obviously super early and not everything people want is here yet. The only way it's going to go is better.

    Love my PRIV! It's actually exciting to be involved with the changes by way of owning a PRIV.

    Have you tried any different launchers yet? Lots of them have tons of gesture options. No idea what BB10 has but android launchers have some various gesture options in the various launchers. have you tried out Nova?
