The z30 was released around September. Yearly releases for phones are the norm.
And WHY are you complaining when you OWN multiple devices!?

Exactly why I can't figure out why BlackBerry comes out with completely new design every few months. Pick a couple of key formats and continuously improve that product line.
For example keep Z10 as entry level touch screen and Z30 as high end touch screen. Q5 as entry level keyboard and Q10 as high end keyboard. Then for next couple years just upgrade the heck out of those. Will build product loyalty and allow the product to mature with updated specs. I'd buy another Z30 with kick *** specs/better hardware and my gf likely would get Z10 again if better specs/updated hardware.
If keep throwing new product names and numbers at people it will get confusing and deteriorate any product loyalty. That means they have to rely on brand loyalty..... and that isn't so hot right now.

The big auto companies only change their models every 4 years in order to keep them affordable. Sure they change the tail lights and may add different options but the assembly line is the same for 4-5 years. The equivalent yearly changes could be software upgrades on existing models.
This attitude is spawned by our throw away society.
So yeah, exactly as I said. You have no idea what it actually takes to make a product from start to finish. Sorry I was a little too hostile, but the fact remains that your complaint is totally unrealistic. You have to consider the feasibility of the product. I have a Q10 as well, best phone ever. But there is no reason to be impatient, the phone will come out and it will come out before you know it. Don't worry about the iPhone and galaxy because this is how fast BlackBerry can come out with phones. They don't grow on trees, it takes engineering r&d, legislative approval, carrier partnerships, and more.

I don't think you realize how much development is required from BlackBerry to make the trackpad and belt work. There are alot of core changes they will need to make to the UX in order to make everything work together flawlessly, ie the gestures + trackpad.
It could easily take several months of development+several months of internal testing+months of carrier testing. 10 months is fair.

Actually accommodating peripherals and/or input devices are relatively simple tasks. If it required core changes, then the initial core design would have been pretty poor from the outset. Somehow I don't see that being the case.
How does everyone feel about the new belt? Yes no? I'm not so sure

This is the stupidest post ever. So sick of these high and mighty types that just complain and make things seem worse then they really are.
There wasn't a single person complaining about apps. I also promise you that most people who are BlackBerry fans want a bigger screen and a physical keyboard. Not a lot to ask.
It's also true that BlackBerry needs to quite promising and start delivering.

You obviously haven't perused these forums adequately.
But, hey, you're entitled to voice your opinion.
