Research In Motion revealed today that the first smartphone to ship with its forthcoming BlackBerry 10 platform will not include a physical keyboard. Instead, the device will offer only a software-based keyboard. It is due to arrive by the end of the year, and a RIM spokesperson said that BlackBerry 10 devices with keyboards will launch "in the future." At a developer event RIM held in May, the company showed off a new software keyboard for its smartphones that uses new predictive software for correcting typing errors. This keyboard is expected to be part of the BlackBerry 10 platform.

I really get tired of saying this so this will be the last time (today):

There's no such thing as being 'too late' to enter a market....

When you say that product X is 'too late'....the implicit assumption behind this is that the way the market ...
