Got me a Verizon Z30
Please Login to Remove!
Is it still Zed or is it Zee now?
In any event, we have no Zed30 Forum!

He is, but he's got other things on his plate as well.

Oh, yeah. I am sure he does. Shoot, don't we all.
I was just answering fourstring. Mods patrol the board and Tom wasn't around when I joined.

Re: Got me a Verizon Z30
Form factor is very nice.
Too soon to tell about battery life.
Same deal killers as with every BB10 device - meaning killers for me, and perhaps not for you. Can't test call quality yet.
I still need Skydrive and Lync.
I still need to have scalable fonts within an e-mail.
5" screen is nice.

Re: Got me a Verizon Z30
Folks criticize WP8 for missing apps, but compared to BlackBerry, WP is practically iOS. I miss banking apps, Starbucks, SkyDrive, and a few others. Any one of those by itself is no big deal, but all together it effects the user experience significantly. Of course that doesn't stop me from swapping back and forth from my iPhone to my Q10 with regularity.

Re: Got me a Verizon Z30
Yep, and believe it or not I think Bing Weather is an excellent weather app.
Great form factor, nice hardware, still BB10.

Re: Got me a Verizon Z30
Hey, I just noticed something while perusing the Z30 specs on GSM Arena. The Z30 has Adobe Flash!

Most of the things that are killers for you are killers for me too.

Re: Got me a Verizon Z30
Lync is available with the latest leak and the upgraded Runtime. Yeah, it's an Android app, but it might suit your purposes.

Re: Got me a Verizon Z30
Does it require BES10 or is this the sideload version?

Re: Got me a Verizon Z30
I downloaded the apk directly to my Z10. It runs fine, except that I learned our company's servers aren't set up for the 2013 mobile app yet. I'm now looking for a 2010 version.

Re: Got me a Verizon Z30
I knew about the 2013 version.
If you find a working Lync 2010 version, please let me know. Others are looking for it too.

Ditto. Need to check the settings with our IT.
