finally got my passport today. my first thought was damn this thing is big. but i'm loving it already

Anyone know where I can buy a screen protector and case locally for the phone?

Everywhere is out of stock....

Telus store in PC had the official hard shell case + screen protector... but $35...

are you guys loving the passport?

Hell yes!!! Gotta love the big high res screen, bb10 hub, long battery life, blackberry blend when i am at home on my air giving my thumbs a rest, most major apps are there, the touch enabled keyboard, solid hardware.

If this had an apple logo on it, ppl would kill for it.

best phone i have ever used ...

i just picked mine up, and i'm waiting for my unlock code..
first impressions are very good, seems like a very solid device..hoping my unlock code comes soon so i can fully test this baby out

Heres the thing about buying 3rd party unlock codes, it voids your warrenty.

IF it bought it out right from your carrier then they have to unlock it for you right away for a fee.

i'm using the best buy warranty, so its a third party thing anyways, so i'm not too worried about it haha

First dock?

Should I pick up a Z30 to replace my Z10 while I wait to see if a Z50 happens in 2015?

If you wanna blow an early xmas present yes.

Remember i paid 620 for mine, 299 is a steal.

wow those phones are damn cheap.

FAWK I missed the John Digweed set! :fuuuuu:

Look out for the hipster barista with the DeadMau5 head. Make sure you say hi and take a photo with me! :)

oh shit wrong thread

About that Z30 deal, asking for a co-worker. The phone on the BB site says it's GSM unlocked only. He's on Telus, and he's been told that they're on HSPA and the phone won't work. If he buys it, is he okay to use it on their network, or will some HSPA-only capabilities be absent? He's been given mixed answers by Telus themselves.

Thanks.

Yes it'll work on Telus' HSPA network.

But not on LTE, it uses bands (850/2100/2600 MHz). Only Bell and Rogers operate on 2600 , Telus is stuck with 1700 at the moment.

Today is a huge day for blackberry, announcing bes12 , partnership samsung in enterprise, red passport, pre order for the classic starting today at 500cad and Bbm meetings.

Their stock price did well today!

how many of you are interested in the classic? Thinking about getting a passport or the classic. Currently using q10. I had a z10 before that and was really impressed with the virtual keyboard but the physical one got the win.

The upcoming Blackberry Classic has certainly piqued my interest.

I'm currently using a Z10 and while I love the phone and its features, I'm more of a traditionalist where I prefer a physical keyboard like yourself. My only real gripe with the Z10 (and most smart phones these days) is that the length is cumbersome in terms of reach (that's what she said haha!)

I reckoned that my next phone was going to be a Nokia Lumia 830 but I am not hopeful of the platform's future and Microsoft's plans for device support.

If your on the FIDO network, you should be able to get LTE correct?

Yes because it uses Rogers network.

thanks I guess I'm picking one up today then... black Friday sale.
