What I do know, is that my hand hasn't grown in the five years since 9900. There is simply no technique and no amount of practice that can make my thumb comfortably reach the far key column while maintaining secure grasp of the handset. After a year with Classic, my typing rate and precision is still vastly better on my old 9900.
It doesn't seem to matter how fast "technology" out paces biology, biology just hasn't yet caught up. Lol.
BB10.3.2 itself provides a marginally "tolerable" toolbelt experience. My biggest complaint, these days, is trying to trackpad scroll down a webpage without getting stuck at the stupid address bar that I NEVER use. I'm not on latest OS so maybe that's been corrected? It would be nice if the devs had maybe used a 9900 for a few minutes in their lives. Don't get me started on 10.3.2 Calendar... Lol.
