I'd go for a Reuben Pizza on Sweet Potato crust from Black Market Pizza, Ames, IA.... they won't deliver to Atlanta... but they will ship frozen....

I was actually about to ask that before I went all serious on my answer. I ended up with Ben & Jerry's Half Baked.

The Z10 is an almighty fine phone. I come from one. When it comes to pure communication it is unbeatable. The flow in the system is amazing and coupled with the hub it's a machine to work with. I dare to say no other system is faster to work with.

However. It lacks in apps. After going for the iPhone 5 I have not used the Z10 anymore. The convenience of having apps that are well developed and no limits when it comes to apps makes me prefer the iPhone for everyday use. Spotify as an example. It isn't available on BB10. You can use the web flash player as BB10 has native flash support but that's not a real solution for me. And I don't want to rely too heavily on sideloading. Also iCloud is freakin fantastic! Backup, reset, restore. The phone will be identical in just 30 minutes. Even icons are placed at the same positon than before the reset.

I kind of miss the flow and swiping setup of the Z10 but iOS 7 has at least added swiping too across the system to navigate backwards. And it looks much more modern and clean than BB10.

Both are great phones. But in the end the iPhone is the winner for me because of the ecosystem.

The real answer is: we don’t know, as it’s not yet been announced. It will be sometime this fall.

That's okay! As Irish Rose said, nobody knows. There is always speculation but until Apple releases invites, it's a waiting game.

Where would any online forum be without pages and pages of mindless drivel with an occasional useful tidbit thrown in just to keep it honest?

 

[finn5975]

Lmao! :laughing:

I will give you this....you seem light hearted and thick skinned, which can go a long way in these forums lol. Seriously though, it sounds like you have a plan so stick with it and in the meantime enjoy the forums. :yes:

Now let's join hands and pray that this thread is soon closed :biggrin:
