WSJ reports dismal BlackBerry Q10 sales

Bluntly put, most people don't switch because there's no desire to do so. If you're hesitating, then you weren't going to commit to it in the first place.

There's no app problem on any of these platforms, just people wanting everything on all of them and not willing to change. When I got my Android devices, I found new apps that I learnt to love. And after only three days with my new Windows Phone, I've already found 40 apps that I really am liking that are exclusive to the marketplace.

Three years ago, I fell madly in love with Palm's webOS, and their Pixi phone. Foolishly, even after HP sort of completely ruined everything, I still grasped at straws. To this day, I believe no other mobile platform can achieve what webOS could have; iOS and Android still aren't completely finished playing catch up to it, four years after launch. But my rambling aside, I do understand I need to let go of broken dreams, and move on.

The thing is, BB10 and the Q10 specifically, is pretty much the only direction that appeals to me. I feel a huge sense of deja-vu coming on.

Why do all the best mobile platforms wither and die?!
