    Just a little anecdote to enjoy.

    At a conference today. We all used our phones extensively for note taking, referring to websites, etc. By noon my Z30 was down to about 73% battery. My colleague's iPhone battery died over lunch. She had to use it but didn't want to leave the table. I had a USB OTG adaptor with me so we tried plugging her charging cable into the adaptor and into the Z30. It worked! It charged her phone enough to boot it up. And it is now 16 hours after pulling my phone off the charger and I still have 13% left. This phone is awesome.

    Yeah, I've done this before.

    They still had the balls to say it was good in this one occasion, but still crappy.

    Talk about ungrateful.

    I really like my Z10 and I classify as a BlackBerry fan, but more of a tech fan in general so I don't hand out blind praise (which seems to happen on these forums too often).

    With all that said, this is pretty cool.

    When you're a Berry and you hook up with an Apple, you'd better wear protection because it ain't an app virgin ;p

    This was covered at the CES. The Z30 Won the challenge as the BEST NOTE TAKING , blog device against the competition. This was done by people covering the show. In so many ways the Z30 is actually a superior device to the competition when it comes down to doing and moving.

    Thanks for the replies. To answer a couple of questions:

    Yes, she's cute.
    No, I didn't use protection. I trust her. I allowed my dongle to connect straight in.
    She was grateful.

    Since this is clearly a charity gift to the underprivileged, you should be able to deduct the cost from your income taxes. Did you keep the receipt for the USB adaptor?
