    It would be great, BB10 is much more convenient.
    But it seems BlackBerry dont want any experiments now. If they get stronger, we can expect more devices on BB10.
    BB10 isn't sitting on a shelf and aging like a fine wine. It's falling further and further behind Android and iOS as they continue to be refined and developed.

    By Chen own admission BlackBerry still has a tough 18 months to go... a point where BlackBerry might be "stronger" does not equal a BlackBerry that will have probably a Billion dollars to invest in resurrecting an old OS. Besides, in two years Android and iOS might be just a secure as BB10 ever was..... so what would the point be then?

    John Chen used the proven and exact the same trojan horse tactics as Stephen Elop. Stephen Elop sacked all the Symbian developers from Nokia so that it was impossible for Nokia to ever make a Symbian device again. While it is technically possible to make a BB10 Priv, it is not possible in practice as Blackberry no longer have enough knowledge and manpower port the Priv to QNX.

    Not sure Chen had much of a choice... based on the finical situation over the last three years. Things had to be cut, and cut, and cut some more. BB10 was something they were spending 100's of millions on, and it wasn't making a profit.

    But yeah, at this point it would be a major cost to return BB10 to the market. Based on how poorly most every Mobile OS released in the last five years has done.... what would the point be?
