    How cool would it be if BlackBerry would make the coolest ever stand alone desktop. Like the IMAC. Imagine a truly fully powered BlackBerry bb10 OS system ,with an advanced version of blend helping to make everything flow. A blackberry bing style browser, that has a steady constantly updated row of moving tiles similar to Windows 10, and the option to pay �9.99/$9.99 a month for the best online, no ads experience on the planet. ! Hmm mm.?

    For a pipe dream, it seems rather underwhelming. If you're going to fantasize, crippling lack of development manpower, app library and market interest aside, might as well make it free. Furthermore, this is probably the first time I've ever heard someone include "coolest ever" and "Bing" in the same train of thought.

    Oh, by the way, 1 pound is not 1 dollar.

    Not to be rude. But there is not much a demand for a new desktop os.

    If I could run AutoCAD, Revit and Photoshop on it - pretty much a requirement as an architect - I'd think about it.

    Otherwise, what's the point?

    BB can't come close to competing with Apple, Microsoft and Google in phones. And that is BBs area of experience. And you want them to try competing in desktops? Seriously?

    Not sure about desktop OS but apparently they are working on a 'dashboard' OS, lol. Do you like to work in your car?

    This is not so far fetched. It wasn't that long ago that HP was just beginning to look into putting webOS on a desktop and now look how far it's come.

    .
    That the device could be built is not farfetched at all. What is farfetched is the notion that people would find much reason to use a BB10 tablet. You would still have the existing platform competition of iOS and Android but would also be taking on Microsoft which is no slouch in tablets with an OS called Windows. All three have massive ecosystems.

    The only possible way that QNX is going to show up on a tablet is perhaps in a pop-out in-dash display, although I can't think of a good reason for doing that either.
