Nothing on the Verizon nor horizon for a while, and that's a fact.
I am sure that John Chen is aware of the need for some new 16:9 phone (with or without an expandable / hidden keyboard, or similar). These posts are not gonna change much.
Contact BBRY, participate in their surveys, go to "icanmakeitbetter", use Twitter, etc. and let them know.
It's keyboard time right now.
The Passport is important and unique. Another high-spec'ed all-touch slab wouldn't nearly have had such an impact as this new innovative phone that breaks common design boundaries.
I assume if they had made the "Z50" instead of the Passport, BlackBerry would be in deep trouble now, and the turnaround would be protracted.
Keyboard phones are their (pardon the pun) classic enterprise phones. They need to stabilize the company with those enterprise sales first, then will they use the funds to produce a standard slab again and advertise in the consumer space.
Get everything out of your Z10/Z30 now, and please be patient.
I'm looking forward to another awesome all-touch (with probably a whole bunch of new innovations) myself , but the time for that's isn't (right) now.
That's just opinion, and you're welcome to disagree.
No offense to all-touch users, I'm gonna upgrade my wife's phone to a Z30 as soon as funds are available.
? BlackBerry? I premdict the future's gonna be chenomenal! ?
