That is true. Doesnt help you much to have android runtime that works more than not, if all the new apps coming out have as a dependency Google Play. Even if I don't like the new direction, i can completely understand why they did it

The demand for bb10 OS phone has nothing to do with it's quality. It has to do with the lack of (or late) support of mainstream applications to it's ecosystem. It was a catch-22 situation where they need the support of the apps developers to gain the customer base, but need the customer base to gain the support of the apps developers. BB10OS is a wonderful child born a few years too late, where all the milk and food was mainly divided into Android and IOS

BB10 is superior to android in many forms. In part due because they had to build into the OS many features that other have via 3rd parties that no one ever made for them. I own a z10 and i've tried Nexus 5X to try to sub it, but it just doesn't have the same versatility (of course, you can upgrade your experience via 3rd party apps), and to be honest the android emulator on bb10 works fairly good. That being said, i can't imagine a better way to embrace the new paradigms of android world than holding hands with blackberry. I know the gods of smartphones dont smile to them as of lately, but i guess when my phone brakes of, that is the way to go. I just hope for all that is sacred that this works. I don't see the appeal to an iphone device.

Makes you wonder. If the head of the FBI, the guy who knows all the secrets, that sees all the scams all the time almost falls for this, what can we expect from you average house folks? Scams are getting more and more elaborate this days. Not perfect, but getting there
