IOS and Android users

[Claymore]

I don't understand how BB can still be appealing without the uncapped data option. It's become like the new Nokia, just something that the somewhat tech unsavy have latched onto as 'something familiar'.

Solid, very slick, really good multitasking, and a whole bunch of other nice things. Not as crippled as iOS, not as "Wild West" as Android.

So you have used it for a while and disliked it?

Those might all be great things about the new system but is it enough to convince the massive BB market once the carrot removed from in front of them?

Time will tell, I guess. 3G costs have been dropping, though, so it's possible the average user may soon be able to get by on R60 of data.

One of my directors has a Q10, I started to like it immediately... then 2 mins later I was cured of thinking it could be a viable next phone. The OS is still very far behind iOS and Android.

Thanks for this. Confirmed! I don't need or want a BB... Ever!

Well said!

Tried a Z10, not a patch on Android, it is refreshing though, the UI is different and sets itself apart from everything else out there, but not enough to pull me away from Android.

Horses for course, I guess. I find Android fiddly, but then, I haven't used it much. iOS, on the other hand, is just crippled.

BB Z10, the S4 and the iPhone have both been approved for use by the Pentagon. Did you know that the Pentagon has 470,000 Blackberries? http://www.pcworld.com/article/2037178/pentagon-clears-blackberry-z10-and-samsung-galaxy-s4.html

S4 only with Knox (which I think isn't released yet), and the iPhone with some draconian restrictions (no Safari, no iTunes, no App Store, segmented mail client, etc.)
