If you are looking to buy a BlackBerry Z30 then you may struggle to find it being sold by your chosen network. O2 EE and Three are refusing to stock it. Only Vodafone and the Carphone Warehouse are the only major outlets selling it. There are of course ways around it!
I got to have a play around with the Z30 in December in Glasgow where BlackBerry had a stall in Buchanan Street and was quite impressed at how good it was. Like ive said before BlackBerry should have been offering these devices a few years ago.

I was a Blackberry loyalist but I couldn't get on with the Z10 (or the Q10, I tried both). My employer had also dropped Blackberry as our standard company handset and switched over 200 people to HTC so for the first time in over 10 years I don't have a BB.
It's over for BB now. They are already finished in the US, the UK was their last stronghold and that has now been lost. I don't think their plan to focus on emerging markets will succeed when Android can be compiled for devices for free and is far more well known than BB10.
Their hardware selling days are all but over now. The only way I can see them surviving is if they make the transition into a software/security company and just abandon the mobile hardware business. Everything they have released in the past few years has just completely tanked.
