So I've spent some time reading the comments on the leaked QWERTY BB10 images... Most of the comments were ofcourse negative. This is something that bothers me about BB fans...Within our own community it seems like RIM can't do anything right. Granted we are all entitled to our opinions... But if you are sports fan or a fan of anything in particular, if you have confidence in your team it leaves very little room for others to bash it. I have seen articles written on CNET and TECH Radar where the authors have directly quoted negative remarks from CB website and used it as a point of emphasis. *dont ask me what article because I can't remember* point is... We need to easy up on the bashing of RIM in our own backyard...I understand people want to express their thoughts and opinions on the up coming product, but the negative comments need to stop... "Icons are too big" (universal search, you can make folders, put primary apps on first 3 pages) I mean these are the strong points of BB and people need to emphasize on that. Big icons=no track pad (someone said "i have fat fingers so this is great")*i have a friend who uses an iPhone because his fingers are too fat for BB's so this is great*(granted if its is not the default setting) but the complaint it (oh even apple got it right adding an extra row) really? Now we are praising apple and bashing our beloved in the same sentence.
So just remember, when other sites start bashing blackberry for having large icons and not justifying it because there is no trackpad to compensate...don't come crying saying "other people are saying bad things about the product". When within our own community we can't defend the practical reasons why BB does some of the things they do...We know BB is for people who gets things done!
Now if you are telling me you don't know how to put your primary apps within the first 3 pages... Then you SIR are not a can do individual...because having a 9900 and being able to fit 15+ icons on one tray... My most used apps are in the first 3 rows...
So why the complaining? We have the ability to do these things... Please exercise it instead of complaining about it...We are starting to sound lazy like iPhone users "I like it because its soooo easy to use, my 3 year old daughter even knows how to use it"...OH PLEASE!
