    No regrets. As others have mentioned, it's odd going back to physical keyboard again, but it's all coming back after a few days.

    My biggest gripe, which is really a matter of retraining my thumbs, is where the ALT key is. I keep pressing 'z' to get additional characters as that's where my thumb thinks the alt key is.

    Concerning the keyboard: many folks say that the Z30 has an amazing keyboard and that they aren't as fast on the Passport. Now, I'm using a Z10 for 1.5 years now and while I'd argue that I'm somewhat fast typing on it with auto suggestion upflicking, I don't get how people can find the typing experience that amazing. Maybe I get written a paragraph of X length in X time and maybe that can be considered "fast" speaking of wpm. But seriously: is it fun? Is it a pleasure? Does it feel good? Is it satisfying? Hell no. Even after 1.5 years I somehow hate it, I just happen to accept and live with it. Touch typing simply sucks. So even if the Passport makes slower under the bottom line, it's still in for a more pleasant typing experience, b/c pressing real buttons is just so much more satisfying. Screw touch screens, screw Swiftkey and Swype.

    Your post is ridiculous. It's your opinion and many including myself would disagree with you.

    My Q10 is back from servicing, they actually gave me a new unit.

    Making me feel guilty of buying a new passport, now that it's working so well. I'd sell it to fund a new one, but no one has answered my ads for the phone so far :/

    Sent it back after a week. Even with 10.3.1 and its shortcuts I'm too slow.
    Since I only type, check tasks and use my calendar, I don't need Androidapps etc.
    It feels also awkward for me to make a call since its so damn wide.
    And last but not least I still got a legacy BES and can`t configure it like I need it. I'll stay with my trusted 9780.

    I regret I didn't reformat my sd card. I just did now and it's fast.

    The biggest issue of all is still app compatibility. You have the smallest % of native applications available compared to any BB10 device...
