Don't hold your breath :P

I actually used my upgrade 3 months ago for an iPhone I sold... I will buy the BB full price ... Prob 2-3 months after its released it'll sell for way less than full retail

When is the device with a Keyboard being released?

RIM obviously has no idea who their consumer base is if they are moving toward all touchscreen devices

The QWERTY phone will be available in April.
I think they are satisfying their customer base while also targeting the iOS/Android user.  This may fail anyway but I dont think they are forgetting who their customers are

Q10 is the keyboard device. You're right, RIM (BB, for the sticklers) is trying to figure out who (if anyone) is going to buy into BB10, once they figure that out they will produce and market devices accordingly.

I think they are satisfying their customer base while also targeting the iOS/Android user.  This may fail anyway but I dont think they are forgetting who their customers are

They (effectively) don't have customers, at current market share they're going to have a hard time maintaining their loyal customer base.

Why?

For me a big readon I like the BB (and that I still have one) is for the hot keys - that its a real phone

yeah, I am not sure how I feel about that.  My first thought was like you but I guess we will see when we try the phone how it is

Thanks! (That's what I told em..)
Just you think older generation can 'learn' the iPhone easily?
(They already used to bb)

I think that especially for the older generation the qwerty keyboard is very important.  Obviously this is not all "older" ppl but it should be a consideration.

I've never seen a smartphone without a qwerty keyboard. Dumb phones, yes; smartphones, never.

I meant an actual keyboard as opposed to touch screen
