Bloomberg is better.

Bloomberg is better.

The same way a full diaper is better than an empty one.

Sad ending to a great company. I might try trading my Z30 in for a Passport. After it dies, there will be no worthy phones to buy. (that don't endlessly spy on you)

I still have my BlackBerry's up to the 9900. I tried the Z10, Q10 those failed so I went to IPhone and then Android. The Classic was their last shot at trying to recapture what they once were. I could update to one but it's probably like buying a Saab, a great product with no support.

Right now, I have a Z10 and a Z30. Love them. A friend bought a Priv, and it's crap. Like, cheaply made plastic crap from the dollar store.

A colleague has a Passport, and its miles ahead in build quality and battery life.

My first BB was great. Rest have been garbage. Should have never got into the touch screen game.

I forgot the Passport, I've held it and the size seems awkward as for the build quality it's good as the Classic if not better.

Agreed they probably shouldn't have gotten into the Playbook too though I still have mine and it's good so who knows.

The Playbook was a very underrated tablet!

The Playbook is good but they dropped the ball via the pricing and marketing like they weren't ready to support it.

Maybe Canonical will be worthy of a look with an ubuntu phone by then.
