Ah okay but with bedside mode which you can customise how notifications work when its enabled there is some sense of a custom profile
Fair enough on the notifications
Typo I meant *personal and I understand that but you can see where it's come from(or at least what kind of message it itms) by peeking before you even enter the hub no? An if it's a bbm message you don't have to go anywhere to respond but yeah it would work as an option
Ah okay, but again most if not all of these points are minor improvements to the OS, some of which may well be in 10.2.1 that comes out officially and whilst your points pertaining to legacy (protect etc) may have some influence on individuals decision, as it has been said before, a lot of these people are going to iPhone/android who have little if any of the features you're talking about, leading me to think that there's more to it than that, which is marketing (under which comes promotion)
If BlackBerry had sent a pin message (or an email to all registered BBID emails) at the launch of bb10 devices, I honestly thin the picture would be different, however slight, and rather than the features you pointed out, I would argue that if BlackBerry had invested or indeed now invests in making the switch from legacy to bb10 so easy(contacts, app data even settings included) that their legacy customer could get a bb10 device, enter some details. Get all their info they had on their legacy device and #KeepMoving straight away then a lot more people from Legacy would invest in bb10.
As I've repeated several times, from my limited xp, I've gathered that
1) some legacy didn't even know about BB10
2) if they did it was a limited knowledge which meant they thought it was just another legacy device and therefore were drawn away by price
3) a lot of people where annoyed with their xp on legacy in terms of ease of use, some who were getting a replacement of their legacy devices (with the same legacy device) couldn't/didn't know how to transfer their contacts etc - hence I stress that in order for then to be convinced to come to bb10 it must take minimal effort for them to do so
It also need to be taken into account that a number of individuals got a legacy because it was cheap and for bbm etc. Thus they need to know why bb10 is worth the price, if it is why it's different which would need effective advertising, not just showing people the product but telling them how it solves their problem
