matt4pack Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 Figured I would start a topic for Blackberry 10 since it launches in only 10 days. Doesn't seem to be much interest on this site even though it's getting a lot of interest and praise on other tech sites. It's gesture based and built on QNX which is a micro-kernel real time OS while the UI was designed by TAT(The Astonishing Tribe) using their framework called Cascades. Both QNX and TAT were bought by RIM. Other features include Real Multitasking - apps are minimized to active frames which update with live info Intelligent Keyboard - uses gestures Hub - always running communication hub accessible from anywhere by gesture Peek - gesture to glance quickly at the hub Balance - separate encrypted work and personal profiles accessible by gesture FIPS 140-2 security certification 70,000 apps available at launch Anyway here are some demos in German that have been making the rounds showing how nice it's looking. Hardware, OS, and Usability Voice Control Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yusuf M. Veteran Posted January 21, 2013 Veteran Share Posted January 21, 2013 They're bringing some unique features to the table. It'll be interesting to see how consumers react to BB10. I have a feeling it'll be a big hit in Canada. RIM stock price - 6 month graph. Just sayin :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
