Research in Motion Ltd (BBRY): The Q10 Need-to-Know List

BlackBerry is still known for its keyboards

Yes, we are well aware that Research in Motion Ltd (NASDAQ:BBRY) designed BlackBerry to be a household name, and its reputation was born of its keyboards, which were the envy of many mobile handset makers. Based on the reviews, it seems the Q10 has the keyboard that lives up to the legendary reputation of the BlackBerry name. This device has the largest keyboard BlackBerry has designed, and the keys are like what is seen on the Curve or the Bold, except the rows are straight instead of curved. Though this keyboard is not soft and thus more inflexible, BlackBerry has thought of that and has put in some shortcut features that will allow the user to initiate certain actions like “Email Suzie” – and the device will still have a touchscreen available to perform some actions that might otherwise require moving a cursor with a scroll wheel or some other feature.
