99.9% of all BB10 hardware reviews were Positive. The majority of actual BB10 users rate it Positive and claim it's the best mobile OS they ever. It's not just BlackBerry PR, consumers just weren't fully aware of BB10, all due to Garbage Marketing.

Rocking a Z30

Which reviews were you reading? Most of the ones I recall all called out the app gap.

Marketing will not convince the average user to pick up a product that is obviously deficient to their needs.

[app_Developer]

Please prove it, John. We're ALL waiting literally breathlessly.

So he's asking fans to keep fighting to keep developers on board but his own teams are still not updating the SDK or publishing any sort of roadmap for developer support. Is Chen being clueless, insane, or cynical?

Oh the negativity... :-D

Some folks will never be happy and spin it whatever way they like...

Oh the irony... :-D

To denounce spin in a thread discussing a spinning tweet

Maybe if you lent BB another $1.25 Billion, BB could stop spinning and start recovering...?

I don't believe in the positive and negative thinking theory, I believe in reality and the April numbers should tell the truth wether the Priv and/or Blackberry devices are selling or not, now it's wait and see.

[IndianTiwari]

BB10 looks like will be here if JC tweet is to be believed. If he continues with BB10 then definitely the OS will be alive. We shall have a more clearer picture when the results are declared.

Actually, that's no that great of a message to send now.

It would have been a while ago, but now they have an android device.

Does this mean they aren't gonna support their android device now? Even the ceo uses BB10. Hmm, maybe I should get rid of my PRIV as well, clearly BlackBerry isn't supporting android according to this message.

Just because Chen still supports and uses BB10 doesn't mean that as a company Blackberry will not also support Android. One doesn't negates the other.

Sounds like a pass the buck sort of comment

But if Chen is not going to do anything about "Others" dropping support, he will be forced to drop support as well! the problem has always revolved around the others either not interested or dropping support. focus on the others Chen ... beg if you have to! BB loyalists will always back you up, we need the masses!

[anon(9742832)]

A single tweet does not reverse the clear course that Chen is steering blackberry towards.

This is merely a failure to commit.

Either axe BB10 or give it the attention and hardware it deserves.

WOOF!

What's "not giving up on BB10" mean? BlackBerry10: Business or Consumer application. There is a profound Real World difference. Please be more specific, without the benefits of ambiguity.

@art_rmt83 I wish is that simple, one of these days you will understand

Yikes. He views CrackBerry fans like children who don't understand the hardware situation. "No, you can't have a puppy. You don't understand how hard they are to take care of. One of these days you'll understand."

Both of these tweets also foreshadow some things to come: "Others may be dropping their support" and "...one of these days..."

That is jc's goal... bigger golden parachute...

Got any evidence (articles or studies surveying all reviews of Blackberry 10 devices, numbers to show that BB10 users haven't been leaving in droves, detailed studies of user awareness vs. purchasing decisions) to back up those dubious claims?

[anon(9710735)]

Aww. That is so sweet. So nice to hear from our Big Brother that he's not giving up on BB10 regardless. Makes me hold on tighter to my BB10 devices.

Irony !! Do you mean to say bb10 will wind up powering web connected ironing boards !!

John Chen must be very worried that most of the BlackBerry 10 development team and developer relations team just.... quit of their own accord! Employee retention is a problem Chen must get undercontrol!!

Me too, but I got over it.

Keeping the OS alive and running doesn't mean the release of a new phone lol. Again, BB7 is running fine and well even tho they are not being sold anymore

I believe he's been pretty clear later on in the comments/Q&A from his tweet ... we should be informed soon ...
Maybe the most valuable information, here. At least the one that catch all my attention ...




Edit : oops, posted already ... sry.

[LSDBerry]

If each and every person who reads this buys four of every available BB10 device brand new, it will still not be enough to ensure ongoing development.

Can anyone on here read? No one said anything about development. Lol if the phones don't make money, they won't make anymore phones. Simple. Doesn't mean OS is dead is all he saying

It's really more like him telling us kids that he is taking the puppy to a big farm where it will be happy playing with all the other puppies.
