January 30 – that's the date every hardcore BlackBerry fan has marked in their calendar. That's when the upcoming BlackBerry 10 smartphones are to be officially unveiled, along with their features and specifications. At least two new handsets are expected to be announced on stage: the BlackBerry X10 with its hardware QWERTY keyboard and the BlackBerry Z10 with a full touchscreen interface...

First in line???? Like there is going to be a line for this product. I dont care if this web browser is the fastest on the market, the apps are sub par, the device is not very appealing, the processor chip is nothing to write home about....and it is a blackberry. The name alone scares people away now...sort of like a Windows phone.

Because it is readily avail;able for public sight. Problem with this sight is it is infested with fan boys who need someone to lead them to product knowledge which is readily available for public view.
And this device will fail....just as the Windows phones everyone here was raving about FAILED...sales is the ONLY important number and Blackberry will never be able to break even for this.

As far as failing i believe that's still in the air and not set in stone, windows phone was never appealing to me. And as far as i know, the only way to see whats in BlackBerry World (BB10 Appworld) you have to have a Blackberry 10 developer device, so unless you have one or know someone with such a device and they have let you go through the current crop of apps on there i think you're just speculating. The device's looks may not be appealing to you but everyone on earth doesn't have the same tastes as you. The processor is perfect for the mid level phone that it is (I'm assuming you mean the Z10). The os seems solid, what rim needs is decent pricing. From what i've seen so far the only thing that will contribute greatly to a failure is device cost.

with a browser like that, and yes with the apps it is supposedly going to push on this device ( which I have seen along with thousands of others), this device needs an A grade processor, which right now it is a C grade at best.
Fail

That's dependent on the optimization of the OS, your speculation is based on the OS being as crappy and outdated as the previous versions. You have no idea how well it will all work in the end and again, its a mid level device. It seems like you're expecting it to launch with a tegra 4 chip...

I have no idea how well rim will do, they are hurdles but people saying they will fail solely because they dislike RIM or because of past BlackBerry devices are complete and utter imbeciles. If this new generation of BlackBerry devices has excellent marketing the devices of the past will not deter consumers from this new generation BB10.

Yeah ok....10 years ago Suzuki released an SUV which was prone to flip over ( Sidekick). 10 years later...Suzuki still cant sell vehichles.

I understand where you're coming from but, that's suzuki you can't compare cars flipping over to a limited smartphone OS like the ones pre blackberry 10. Its just not the same. The OS was limited before by the looks of it thats not the case in 2013, i see no reason why it would fail. Only the months after January will tell which of us is more accurate. I don't want them to fail, their new OS and Leaked specs for the Z10 have what i need in a phone. The price is all i'm concerned of.

Umm, they still sell motorcycles very well, and by definition that is a vehicle.

Black Berry 10 full touch screen and everyone's favorite BLACK BERRY 10 QWERTY phone. This might be a promising year for RIM if they can play all their cards right
