    There goes z10 sales. BB is walking a tight line by releasing this phone right now...especially with their miserable app selection. They are moving very close to cannibalizing themselves.

    Z sales in the US aren't exactly setting the world on fire, judging by the 50-75% off pricing.

    I'd be more worried if BlackBerry wasn't releasing new hardware this year, and already working on next year's as well. The A was never meant to replace the Z, it was to be another model in the line. I would hope they are already working on next generation hardware for next year.

    Because when Ford releases a new Mustang everyone stops buying their other cars right?

    Great article! I think I'll know what I'll be asking Santa to put in my stocking this year.
    A 10" BlackBerry PB with OS10?

    You can't buy a Mustang on a 2-3 year contract for one-third of MSRP. If you could then yes sales of the previous generation Ford would only sell to budget oriented consumer. I would guess that sales of the iPhone 5 dwarfs the current monthly sales of the 4s.

    Interesting that this would leak this early? Obviously the Astro!

    Wow... another slap in the face to the early adopters. The Z10 would only be 9 months old by that point! Even Samsung and apple release on a yearly schedule. No need to have a faster phone right now anyway. There aren't any apps that even utilize the full power of the Z10.
    What???

    Samsung? Once a year?

    Surely you jest?

    Maybe the Galaxy S II to the II HD or LTE to the III to the 4. Or perhaps all the other Samsung models.

    Aristo will be the flagship media phone. 5" oled, great sound. But the z10 is still going to be around for a long time. It is the perfect size. I'm sure we will see a z11 next year with upgraded specs.

    If it has at least a 5 inch screen then It'll be my next phone. This is the BlackBerry I've been waiting for!

    If they can get prime time apps, I will consider buying.

    I'm not so sure it's going to be a successor to the Z10, as much as another BB10 product.

    Samsung has the Galaxy S series, and the Galaxy Note series, and they sell side by side.

    Blackberry has the Z series, and the upcoming A series, and they will sell side by side.

    The phablet is not for everyone, including myself.

    Well my 9930 agreement with sprint is up in December. So perfect timing. Sprint just gave me a new 9930 today because mine had a track pad issue so I'm rocking a new 9930. Sweet. Go BlackBerry

    Judging by the lack of support from carriers, I won't be surprised if the z10 is EOL by the end of July/early August.

    If a BlackBerry 's life cycle is too short, it will have poor value and a low resale value. Not smart at all.

    April Fools or not as of right now the bb10 Playbook (B10) release and when the U10 (A10) are supposedly released have been confirmed here as well as by some BlackBerry employees I know personally. Coincidence? Perhaps...
    No just No lol.

    Current z10 owners are getting screwed if that's true. Makes you wonder if 10.2 will see the light of day in the US (well at least for the z10). Something told me that the z10 would be the playbook all over again (from a company support pov).

    Yeah there was a thread a few days ago about a guy that played tennis with a Blackberry employee and got to see and briefly use one. He kept calling it Astro... so it's probably become kind of an inside joke around here.
