1. A keyboard is better then a touch screen. But most people don't care

2. The trackpad/mouse was the fist thing RIM wanted to get rid of. Most hardware failures were due to it. It was also the thing most people complained about.

3. windows 8 is great. really. try it. My kids use macbooks and windows laptops at home (age 6,8 and 10). For a new laptop, I gave them a free vote on OS and they all chose Windows. Windows 8 on a touchscreen ultrabook with SSD is about the fastest and most intuitive computer I have ever used. And the resolution is much higher then the macbook air.

4. The Q10 is the only game in town for a quality keyboard. sad but true. we have to live with that for now. i am confident that RIM will slowly improve the device with firmware updates over time
