Rogers isn't the only one setting up pre-orders for the BlackBerry Q10; TELUS kicked off their reservation system for the key-studded device tonight. Though pricing and dates aren't being set in stone, BlackBerry has been pretty clear that we'll see the Q10 come in April. If you haven't had a chance to check it out, take a look at our Q10 hands-on video.
Personally, the Q10 is the BlackBerry I'm holding out for. Between the keyboard with buttons bigger than the 9900, and the doubtlessly improved staying power thanks to the bigger battery and smaller display than the Z10, I can see the Q10 becoming a serious workhorse. My only real concern is getting apps over, but Jam Europe had the Dev Alpha C announced, and the display resolution fits almost perfectly into the Z10's when the virtual keyboard is slid up.
Any Canadians holding out for the BlackBerry Q10? Which carrier are you going to go with? How about you folks elsewhere in the world?
