To be sure, there are those of us who don't need or want any of that, but we are facing extinction. The handheld device is increasingly, not decreasingly, an app engine. BB10 has the potential to handle that future, but it's far from clear that it will have the opportunity to do so. Hence the frustration conveyed by just about everyone here. It's no consolation at all to be told that some of us don't care that much about apps.
