This delay isn't that far off of the original expected release. I know everyones gona say, well they're never on time so this one will be too early of an estimate too, but I am just saying; The physical keyboard was expected first quarter of 2013, the phones will have the same type of issues in bugs (running the same qnx and what not -yes someee differences) but I think they could release them at the same time. I think a dual release would be much more of an impact than one alone. Play all their cards at once, and see how the hand plays out.
what do you think?
