    Just thought I'd let everyone know that I dropped by the BlackBerry stand at the Trafford Centre today. I'm pleased to say that there was a healthy crowd gathered round the stand, all eager to try the Z10 and the BlackBerry people really knew their stuff.
    I was also given a z10 coffee mug!
    Cheers

    Yep last week they were at Westfield Stratford here in London, every time i went by the stand there were plenty of people having a look and asking questions.

    I won a blackberry stress ball and a �5 voucher for BB apps but sadly the voucher doesnt work for BB10 or playbook devices :/

    I was there yesterday. Lots of people around the stand too. Bagged a BlackBerry Keep Moving should bag for a freebie as well. BTW, did you notice the Samsung stand around the corner on Peel street? There were less people looking at them then the Z10's.

    Good to hear. Interesting is high where I am and there is a general level of enthusiasm for the Z10. At the end of the day, you can't beat the flow and hub integration. It just suits people's needs. A little more 3rd party app support over the next month or so and this puppy will sell.

    I visited the stand in Southampton on Saturday - really impressed. I entered a competition to win a Z10 (fingers crossed)! They showed me video calling and also the time shift photo feature. They said if I had a BB on me I would win something. After showing my BB Pearl I got the choice of a mug, USB stick or bag. I chose the shoulder bag - it is really good. They also gave me a stash of Z10 screen wipes! Overall this seemed a really slick and well organised operation.

    They also gave me a map of the shopping centre which marked out the shops that sold the Z10. I thought it was a really good idea!
