Wow, it is like a totally new device once I was told how to use it. I really like it. I forgot how nice the BlackBerry keyboard is. Battery life is excellent, call volume etc are great and I like the combination of touchscreen and keyboard. Very happy with this device at this point.

I'm glad you got the hang of it. Now try using an Iphone/Ipad and you'll swipe all over the place, and just hate the HOME button

My Verizon Blackberry Q10 arrived today (06/03/14) - have been looking at it for a ?year? and finally last week ordered it. Unfortunately not a stock in Central Indiana Verizon stores so wait for delivery.

Current QWERTY physical keyboard device: Motorola Droid Pro for ?4? years and it would literally sometimes take 90+ seconds to dial, bring up the camera, etc. so it was LONG overdue.

Haven't turned it on yet - letting it fully charge the battery.

Also got a free Verizon Ellipsis 7" with it (along with a $50.00 rebate) which has been great to go from the Samsung Galaxy Tab 7" (original / wifi) to a broadband device.

Signed, Desperately physical QWERTY.

Sprint's experience at disappearing QWERTY options: I come not to praise QWERTY, but to bury it

Heh. I see my above post from last year. I made it to around Christmas then I couldn't stand it anymore and for a Moto X which I am still quite pleased with.

Wow this was a blast from the past, I was one of the first to get the Q10 when it was released. Been very happy with it, and now with Android apps without having to side-load it, I am very happy. I guess a real keyboard on a phone is still a niche market.

I'm anxiously awaiting the BlackBerry Classic! BB10 is great, but having the traditional BB optical trackpad to highlight text is way better than touch-screen selection.
