Context is not real estate. They are two different things. Shifting from 9:16 to 16:9 means that you can see more to the side than you can see down. I don't know about you, but I like seeing things in the big picture. Not having to scroll up and down every second sentence or cell.

The key to that answer is context. If you're typing in landscape mode, you're not doing a long e-mail. Portrait mode allows you to keep more of the content on the screen as you're typing so that you can keep things in context. That was the design thought behind the width of the Passport...

It would be a shame to miss out on being able to enjoy this device simply because it has the name BlackBerry attached to it.

Erm... yes. See how that argument works. Seriously. BB10 is not dead and Priv is not the only Android Phone BlackBerry will bring out. I'd suggest stop listening to the Crackberry forums. Those guys don't have a clue.

Here's the kicker....BlackBerry may just release a Z30 style Android device if Priv sells well. They aren't giving up on BB10. BB10 isn't just about handsets, BB10 is the basis for their entire software portfolio. If people don't want an Android phone, there will be BB10 variants on the way...

The more that comes out about this product, the more tantalising it is. Still happy with my Passport, but yowsers I'm thinking about this as a business phone.

Nothing has been said about Link yet. Link is software which works with the BB10 OS. We won't know if Priv's Android variant can be handled by Link until the device is launched.

In fact, if you go to Google Play, you will see that the BlackBerry Keyboard is now an app.

If it's a company phone then it's controlled by BES. Only your IT Administrator can organise call forwarding for you.
