will there be any non touchscreen BB10 devices?
- i really dont like the touch screen, would rather just have a great device with keyboard (similar to 9650)
i know the first version will be all touch, but will the qwerty versions coming out next year be like the 9930 or like the Bold 9650?

RIM has already noted many times there will be keyboard devices.
The touchscreen itself existing on all devices is a non-issue. My 9900 has a touchscreen, though I barely ever use it.Superfly_FR and Thunderbuck like this.05-10-12 08:21 PMLike 2 - I barely intentionally use the touchscreen on my 9930 too...but I often inadvertently launch stuff when I grab it, or accidentally unlock it. I would really like a disable function.05-10-12 08:28 PMLike 0
- The RIM already officially said that there will be a BB 10 in Bold form factor with a physical keyboard.
If RIM don't release a physical keyboard version it will be bad for RIM because there are many customers like myself who will only go for a phone with a physical keyboard.

BB10 will be released on touchscreen phones and phones with qwerty. I believe all future blackberrys that have a keyboard will also be touchscreen.05-11-12 05:09 AMLike 0

Will the next Playbook have a keyboard? If not, it's kind of hard to tell the story that keyboards are an essential piece.05-11-12 09:54 AMLike 0 - 05-11-12 10:05 AMLike 0
- but the question is if the next phones will have a keyboard not whether the playbook will have a keyboard, the playbook will always remain keyboard less. RIM`s keyboard i think played a huge part in the company, now obviously people want full touchscreen but out of the phones that have keyboards i think RIM`s keyboards are better than any other phone out there. i think the reason its important to RIM is because the people that have blackberrys already love the keyboard. i for one love using the keyboard on my phone but i am excited to see how bb10 will be since the first phone is gonna be touchscreen with no keyboard and its RIM`s next big thing (hopefully)05-13-12 06:48 AMLike 0
- So RIM hasn't been profitable with almost all of their offerings having a keyboard? The Playbook can't use a bluetooth keyboard or mouse? RIM didn't just release their own BT Keyboard with touchpad for the Playbook? Just because something doesn't have a keyboard built in doesn't imply that wouldn't like you to use a physical one with it.05-14-12 09:56 AMLike 0

Yes, RIM said they will be making a device with a full keyboard, but I am sure it will still have a touch screen anyways (gestures and such)05-14-12 10:05 AMLike 0 -
- I'm not sure at all... BB10 will be releasing a QWERTY keyboard device after the initial all-touch phone is released... But I agree with one of the other posters that maybe even the keyboard phones might have some touch actions (like "swapping" between different windows/apps?). I guess we'll have to wait and see! It'll be exciting, I'm sure!05-14-12 02:01 PMLike 0
- It's promising to know that BB10 will be all touch. Keyboards are a thing of the past and BB10 is the future of BlackBerry. Get with the times fellow BB users.05-14-12 05:47 PMLike 0
