OTG is nice, but I wouldn't get broken up about it. If you have SD card support, what's the big deal? Precisely -- the fact that only up to 32GB SD cards are supported on the Z10. I'd be far more worked up about that than not being able to dangle a dongle with a flash drive from my USB port. I use OTG from time to time on my Nexus 10 because it "only" has 32GB internal storage, but it's hardly something I can't live without.

USB OTG is useful for so much more than just flash drives. I use it nearly everyday and don't think I even own a flash drive. I use my phone's data connection to download updated files for the day and then load them on to two different devices that don't have their own WiFi or data connection. That saves me from having to turn on my PC to do 30 seconds of work. Something I used to do every morning almost until my Nexus 4 got USB host mode.

... lol AirDrop? A USB stick plugs into anything and NFC is fairly standard as well. My friends have all kinds of devices and as a file sharing solution AirDrop fixes nothing for us. Well done BB for developing things that work cross-platform. More please

Yeah we got it lol.

A product manager was doing a presentation down here in SA and one of the cool features that he demonstrated was that he actually connected a mouse to his phone and was controlling the phone through the mouse....pretty cool indeed

Not to upset as I am sure I would only use it once to see how it works, I use my phone more as a usb drive so having an extra thumb drive is redundant for me

Um, from a dumpy little company in some place called Waterloo, Ontario:

Yes, you're so right. I'm used to it on the Nexus 10, where most I know use it for playing media off of flash drives.

Doesn't change the fact of you being wrong.
There you go:

You see the 59.3 GB? That's my 64GB micro sd card.
Well, I actually have two of them, and both work.
I may quote you again:

Last I remember the Z10 supports up to 64 GB SD card

It does support 64gb. Just like any memory card it just has to be formatted correctly.

After not having Miracast, this is the next big let down as an early adopter.
It gets harder and harder to not get upset about BlackBerry.

Just so I understand the reason:
Is it planned obsolescence or is there an actual reason for that?

Sorry if this was already answered... But the Z and Q don't have power going to their usb ports, so it's a hardware thing
