Started a discussion: BlackBerry 10 and Z10 Phone Announcement http://mitchmckenna.com/post/12347/started-a-discussion-blackberry-10-and-z10-phone-announcement

RIM had their (much delayed) announcement for the new version of their OS and new flagship phones this morning (http://tremolo.edgesuite.net/blackberry_experience_launch/desktop_dvr/index.html - skip it, just watch the videos below). There are probably a lot of users who either think this is what's gonna save RIM (err, BlackBerry now) and others who think this just re-affirms BlackBerry's done for. No one had posted a discussion for it yet, so I thought I'd start things off.

Z10 Phone
I like the design of the Z10; Droid X-like face, edge to edge glass, iPhone 5-like sides, solid (professional looking) black, good shape. Finally a modern-looking keyboard-less phone from BlackBerry.

BlackBerry 10
Very smooth animations in the OS, and I'm big fan of the webOS-like gestures (Flow & Peek): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-LDay0QmFgM. It's smart they're focusing on features that make them unique;Nice to see large-screen native apps from 20-30 of the big social, gaming, and business app makers: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BWu6Y4JrbO4. As someone who receives the BlackBerry developer emails, it's obvious they're pushing hard to get more on the platform, but there will always be far less than on iOS/Android.
