Former Apple CEO mulls BlackBerry bid
“The only thing I would say is, I think there’s a lot of future value in Blackberry,”

Not many useful new things, IMO. The biggest thing is probably the new Android runtime, but developers are still not porting their existing apps over as it is. Priority Inbox is useless for 99% of the population. The quick-response system is okay, but doesn't apply to all message types. The Natural Sound thing on the Z30 is a decent feature, if you're into that sort of thing - I never use the speakers on the phone. The lock screen notification listing is only useful in certain circumstances - most of the time you wont see if because you're swiping up to the homescreen, or swiping up to the lock screen.
Keep in mind they're refocusing on the business market, so you get unmatched battery life, great audio for conference calls, and everything else that makes sense to people for whom the phone is a tool.

I work downtown and I have only seen 2 Z10s in someone's hands in over 6 months! I see tons of old work issued BBs though....alongside those iPhones. The rest of my clients and vendors have already switched to S3s, Note2s or S4s.
I have used my Note2 at the center of 9+ boardroom meetings as a conference device when the comm system was down. In smaller meetings I have been able to use it as a conference device and take minutes using MSOneNote. Guess what...no tippidy tapping to piss off those on the conference call while I type minutes on the phone!

Install BlackBerry Link on your computer, and plug your phone in.
I know. However, this was the planned feature-set well before the realignment of strategy, though. This is what they think consumers want.
I did my phone this way last night.
to avoid carrier overages that would then be blamed on BB.
Even android says 'connect to wifi for this update' when doing an OS update.
I get that.
However if you have the data available then it'd be nice to say "thanks but no thanks", and just download.
I just don't understand why this is not an option( I'm hopeless when it comes to this stuff tho). Default to wi-fi, but be able to toggle that setting.

We can't even complain to our mutual friend any longer.
Just had a coworker do it on his Z10.
went to Settings ->Software updates->Check for updates
Connected only to Rogers cellular (no wifi). Warned that it would consume large amounts of data and carrier charges may apply and to have the phone plugged in to a power source during the update.
