Memorial Day Weekend Traffic Enforcement
(FRANKFORT, Ky.) - Memorial Day weekend, which begins at 6 p.m. on Friday, May 28 and ends at 11:59 p.m. on Monday, May 31, traditionally marks the beginning of the summer driving season. The Kentucky State Police expects a significant increase in traffic on the state´s roadways during this time period. Motorists throughout the state can help make the roads safer this holiday weekend by remembering two words: buckle up.
Last year, six people lost their lives in three separate crashes during this time period. One of the fatalities involved alcohol and only one of the six victims was wearing a seat belt.
"As of May 27, there have been 316 fatalities and 16,457 injuries due to crashes on Kentucky´s roadways in 2004," notes KSP Commissioner Mark L. Miller. "Many of these injuries and fatalities could have been lessened or avoided if the drivers and passengers had simply used their seat belts. Seat belts are the single most effective action you can take to protect yourself in a vehicle crash."
According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), using seat belts reduces the risk of sustaining a fatal injury by 45 percent in a car and 60 percent in a light truck. The agency also reports that 60 percent of passengers killed in traffic crashes are not wearing seat belts.
Kentucky State Police troopers will be working overtime during the Memorial Day holiday to target impaired drivers, speeders and those not wearing seat belts. They´ll be conducting increased saturation patrols and traffic safety checkpoints in high crash, high traffic locations. They´ll also be coordinating their enforcement activities with local police and sheriff´s departments for maximum coverage.
As part of Operation C.A.R.E (Combined Accident Reduction Effort), a nationwide program aimed at reducing crashes on interstates and parkways, KSP troopers will also be concentrating on speeding and impaired driving violations. Combined with seat belt violations, these factors account for the three leading causes of highway fatalities. Kentucky has a zero tolerance policy regarding driving while impaired by alcohol. Operating a vehicle with a blood alcohol level of .08 will result in an immediate arrest even for first time offenders.
To maximize their visibility, KSP troopers will be using daytime running lights on their vehicles during the enforcement period. Motorists should also remember that Kentucky law requires them to slow down and use caution when they see a law enforcement or emergency vehicle stopped alongside the road with its lights flashing. They must also move over to the lane farthest away from the vehicle if they are on a two-lane road and can do so safely.
"Failure to wear a safety belt is a secondary violation," explains Miller. "A citation may be issued only if a motorist is stopped for reasons other than violation of the seat belt law. However, no warnings will be issued to those drivers found not wearing a safety belt as a secondary violation. They will receive a citation. Protecting yourself, your children and your passengers is your responsibility and it´s law enforcement´s duty."
According to Kentucky law, all children 40 inches in height or less, must be buckled into a child safety restraint seat that meets federal standards. Children over 40 inches tall must wear a seat belt. Violation of this law will result in a $50.00 fine with an additional $10.00 fine donated to the Traumatic Brain Injury Trust Fund.
Motorists should also be aware that the back seat is the safest place for children to sit, especially in vehicles equipped with passenger-side air bags. Infants and toddlers should never ride in the front seat of a vehicle with a passenger-side air bag. Parents should always be sure that their child´s safety seat has been properly installed in the vehicle according to the manufacturer´s instructions.
Kentucky law makes the driver responsible for assuring that all occupants of the vehicle are properly restrained. Violation of this law will result in a fine not to exceed $25.00.
According to NHTSA, every motor vehicle crash is actually three collisions. First, the vehicle hits an object that causes it to come to an abrupt stop. Second, the car´s occupants, still traveling at the vehicle´s original speed, hit some part of the vehicle interior (steering wheel, dashboard, window) or are ejected (75 percent of those ejected are killed). Unbelted passengers also become high-speed projectiles, striking other passengers. The American College of Emergency Physicians reports that in a 55 mile-per-hour crash, an average-size, back-seat passenger moves forward with a force of 3,000 pounds. Third, after the occupants´ bodies come to a stop, their internal organs are still moving forward. These organs hit other organs or the skeletal system, often causing serious or fatal injuries.
"During a crash, violent forces of deceleration are created as the vehicle comes to a stop in approximately one-tenth of a second," notes KSP Capt. Brad Bates, Commander of the Governor´s Highway Safety Program. "Seat belts distribute these forces over larger and stronger parts of the body such as the chest, hips and shoulders. The seat belt also stretches slightly to slow the body down and increase its stopping distance. The difference in stopping distances for a belted person and an unbelted person is significant. It´s often the distance between life and death."
Citizens can further contribute to highway safety during the holiday period by reporting erratic drivers to the KSP toll-free hotline at 1-800-222-5555 (in the state of Kentucky only, does not work out of state). Callers will remain anonymous and should give a description of the vehicle, location, direction of travel and license number if possible.

|Vilas County Court report
Arbor Vitae man gets probation
A 42-year-old Arbor Vitae man, who was convicted of having sex with a 14-year-old girl at his cousin's house in the summer of 2005, was placed on probation for 10 years after his prison sentence was stayed in Vilas County Circuit Court last week.
Keith T. Breneman was sentenced to 10 years in the Wisconsin Prison System, including six years of confinement and four years of extended supervision, but Circuit Judge Neal Nielsen III stayed the sentence and placed Breneman was placed on probation for 10 years.Conditions of Breneman's probation include: no contact with the victim, who is now 22; no unsupervised contact with any minor females; register as a sex offender; sexual offender counseling and treatment; not to possess or consume intoxicants; no taverns; continue aftercare as recommended by the agent; attend self-help group once a week; take medications only as prescribed; submit DNA sample and fee; pay counseling costs for the victim up to $5,000; and serve 12 months in the county jail to commence May 8. Judge Nielsen said the jail time can be served in another county and Breneman will receive credit for three days served up front.
In other felony cases, Donald J. Morford, 66, of Lac du Flambeau, charged with manufacturing/delivery of marijuana, possession of marijuana and possession of drug paraphernalia, had a pretrial conference set for April 30 at 10:45 a.m.
According to the criminal complaint, Lac du Flambeau firefighters responded to a structure fire at 1301 West Squaw Lake Road about 6:10 p.m. March 3. As one of the firefighters attempted to find the residence's breaker box to shut off electrical power to the home, he observed an apparent indoor marijuana grow with plants inside the residence.
Once the fire was out and firefighters deemed the structure safe to enter, police officers entered the building and located numerous items of drug paraphernalia, a jar with two bags of green leafysubstance identified as marijuana, rolling papers, two pots with dirt, a growing light over each pot, items for fertilization, a ventilation system and a thermometer.
Mordford was taken into custody by authorities.
Ronald P. Peterson III, 22, of Lac du Flambeau, charged with theft of moveable property and felony bail jumping, had a jury trial set for July 11 at 8:30 a.m.
According to the criminal complaint, Peterson was allegedly involved in the theft of two flat screen televisions from a house and jewelry from an adjacent cottage July 18, 2012, in Lac du Flambeau. It was also determined a computer, monitor, keyboard and two printers were also missing, for a total value of about $3,000. Apparently, there was a party at the home and the items were allegedly removed from the residence after the homeowner's daughter fell asleep, according to the complaint.
Peterson was later charged with felony bail jumping Dec. 8, 2012, for having contact with another defendant in the case, John Allen Jr., 19, of Lac du Flambeau. Allen pled no contest to misdemeanor theft Dec. 17, 2012. He was placed on probation for 12 months and served 60 days in the county jail.
Cherish L. Big John, 25, of Lac du Flambeau, entered a guilty plea to a charge of possession with intent to deliver narcotics. A charge of operating a motor vehicle while revoked was dismissed. A presentence investigation was ordered and sentencing was set for June 10 at 9 a.m.
According to the complaint, Big John was arrested in Vilas County Feb. 7 after law enforcement officers were informed that she was returning from Milwaukee after purchasing Percocet. Officers initiated a traffic stop on Big John about 2:26 a.m. because one of her vehicle's headlights was not illuminated.
Following Big John's arrest, it was learned she had 21 Percocet tablets placed in a body cavity. She told investigators she was addicted to oxycodone, a synthetic analgesic drug which is similar to morphine in its effects.
Charlene R. Edwards, 20, of Lac du Flambeau, also was arrested in the incident and allegedly had 35 tablets hiding in a body cavity. She told investigators she could purchase the prescription drugs in Milwaukee for $18 and sell them for $40 each in Lac du Flambeau. Edwards is scheduled for a plea date May 20 at 11:45 a.m.
Big John also had a charge of felony bail jumping dismissed and entered a guilty plea to another charge of operating a motor vehicle while revoked March 5 in Lac du Flambeau. She was fined $379, with her $1,000 cash bond to be applied to the fine. In addition, Judge Nielsen ruled that an additional $500 would be forfeited to the court. The balance will be returned to Big John.
Paula Christensen, 27, of Lac du Flambeau, entered a no contest plea and was found guilty of escape. Her sentence was withheld and she was placed on probation for 12 months with the following conditions: not to possess or consume controlled substances or intoxicants; no taverns; any counseling deemed necessary by the agent; and serve 90 days in the Vilas County Jail to run concurrent with the sentence she is currently serving. Judge Nielsen said she may have release privileges for needed appointments. He also said the court has no objections to electronic monitoring if arrangements can be made. She received credit for 52 days served.
According to the complaint, Christensen appeared in court Dec. 12, 2012, on a sentencing after revocation charge and was sentenced to nine months in the county jail. She was released on a furlough but was to report back to jail by Dec. 14, 2012, at 10 a.m.
Christensen contacted the jail Dec. 14 at 11:38 a.m. to report that her mother had passed away and she was instructed to return by 11:59 p.m. Dec. 15, giving her time to attend the funeral. Correction officers noted that she had not returned to the jail Dec. 16. On Dec. 18 at 11:25 a.m., correction officers received a call from Christensen's relative that Christensen was planning to leave the area and was going to Milwaukee, but was still in the Lac du Flambeau area as of the night before. Christensen was later arrested and charged with escape.

Trickledown Effect
The natural trek of water down the state, through Lake Okeechobee and out into sensitive saltwater estuaries, has always been a hot topic in Florida. Over the years, the state has implemented different projects to cleanse this water of harmful nutrients, such as nitrogen and phosphorus, before it has a chance to spawn deadly estuarine algal blooms. As urban development creeps closer to wetlands, however, natural watersheds continue to become channelized, increasing the likelihood of nutrient invasion.
Capt. Rick Murphy of Homestead reports that the terrible blooms of the mid-1980s and 1990s in Florida Bay seem to be a thing of the past. Scientists who monitor water conditions also agree that quality has been fairly stable in this region. The Comprehensive Everglades Restoration Project (CERP), a $7.8 billion, 30-year plan enacted in 2000 to protect and preserve the state's water resources, certainly has helped create better conditions in this southerly region.
Unfortunately, other areas, such as the St. Lucie and Caloosahatchee estuaries on the east and west coasts, have recently fallen victim to huge amounts of polluted freshwater discharges from Lake Okeechobee, resulting in horrendous water qualities and a lawsuit against the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.
Donald Fox, a 25-year Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission biological administrator, says CERP's current challenge lies in securing large parcels of land north of Lake Okeechobee in which to store and cleanse water before either releasing it to tide or moving it into the supply for human consumption and use.
"The biggest problem now," Fox claims, "is that over the last few years real estate got so pricey and developed that it's very difficult to find blocks of land that you can use to store water."
The Florida Department of Environ-mental Protection in 2001 instituted a 10-year, $3 billion program called Florida Forever, intended to purchase and protect environmentally sensitive lands. It often targets spring watersheds, according to DEP public information officer Yasmin Wallas. But the sheer numbers of people pouring into the state has overwhelmed many efforts, making the situation even direr.
"South Florida is running out of water," says Joe Boyer, Ph.D., associate director of the Southeast Environmental Research Center at Florida International University. "You go up the west coast into Naples, and they're out of water. They'll be drinking their sewage soon. Most of these restoration projects are designed to conserve water for human use rather than to rehydrate natural systems. Pretty soon there won't be much water to lose to the oceans, because we'll need it for drinking and growing citrus."
Cessation of freshwater inflow would present a frightening scenario for estuary health and saltwater fishing. With human health potentially at risk, the stakes have been raised, and many state officials say that only now is the situation garnering the critical attention it deserves.
"We're behind the curve here," Fox says. "It's really about human existence and our future in the state of Florida."
Diminishing Returns
In light of these overwhelming environmental and societal challenges, issues such as boating access seem trite - unless you find yourself among the legions of saltwater anglers throughout the state who face more and more difficulty just getting their craft on the water, let alone catching fish.
It's no secret that the real-estate boom had an enormous effect on the face of coastal Florida. Many locations once home to public boating access points, such as marinas and boathouses, were sold for big profits to covetous developers who then turned them into private-use facilities.
In Steinhatchee alone, Kroll says, three public marinas have shut their doors in the last two years.
"They've been turned into private resorts and condominium/marina communities," he says. "We only have one paved public boat ramp now. It's really terrible. It's a good ramp, but there's no parking. People have to walk 3/4 of a mile on weekends. It's a huge issue."
The hurricanes of 2004 also took a tremendous toll, ruining many small waterfront businesses, according to Patricia Harrell, the FWC's boating-access coordinator.
"A lot of little marinas that were damaged had submerged-land leases, and [developers] came in, threw down a lot of money and said, 'We'll take over your submerged-land lease, but we'll build condos or dockominiums.'"
A spokesman for the state's Department of Community Affairs, which oversees development in Florida, says there's no way to quantify how much coastal land has been developed since 2000 or how much more is currently available for development.
The situation affects not only private recreational anglers; it's created issues for the charter industry, making it more difficult for captains to earn a living.
"My dockage expense has more than tripled in four years," Rosher says. "When I was a kid, we'd see tackle shops on the water. There was one in Miami Beach that you could ride your boat right up to. Waterfront real-estate value has changed the face of what is on the water. I'm not going to say boatyards and marinas are numbered, but they're certainly shrinking, and therefore escalating prices on all related services."
What To Do Now?
It's easy to get pessimistic over the many challenges facing Florida, but Rosher claims much upside still exists, noting that increased restrictions on fish harvest and the pelagic longline and inshore net bans have kept stocks fairly healthy and the charter business rolling along.
Government officials add that while many challenges lie ahead, this is precisely the time to step up, rather than sit back and groan.
"The only way to avoid a bleak outlook is to apply a huge amount of public pressure," says John Hunt, an FWC program administrator.
Boyer claims that as long as the population continues to increase, it's vital for each citizen to become more efficient. "We've got to decrease the per capita usage of our natural resources," he says.
Thomas Eason, Ph.D., FWC's conservation initiatives coordinator, says the Florida 2060 report is a "call to action." He claims that now is the time for more citizen involvement in local and state government activity and meetings.
"If this is not what we want our state to look like, we all need to work collectively to change it," Eason says. "There are all sorts of three- to four-county votes that are fairly important. They're not glamorous, but it's really where the rubber meets the road. As Floridians, we have the responsibility to step up and change things if we don't like what we see. It's the only way to look at things today."

Blocked Tear Duct
A blocked tear duct occurs when the opening (duct) that normally allows tears to drain from the eyes to the nose is obstructed or fails to open properly. If a tear duct remains partially or completely blocked, the tear duct sac fills with fluid, becomes swollen and inflamed, and sometimes gets infected.
Most babies with blocked tear ducts are born without an opening in the thin tissue (membrane) that covers the duct. In adults, several conditions can block the tear ducts, such as a sinus infection or a broken nose.
Usually no treatment is needed for a blocked tear duct in a baby. In time, the duct will open on its own. If the duct does not open, a procedure called probing can be used to open it.
In adults, the type of treatment for a blocked tear duct depends on the cause. A blockage caused by infection may be treated with antibiotics. A blockage caused by a problem with the size or shape of the tear duct may require surgery.

Its business practice is focused on offering people avenues to express their idealism, passion, and commitment to causes larger than themselves at every point along its supply chain from suppliers and partners to shareholders, customers and its own staff.
The company derives its name from the Great Law of the Iroquois that states, "In our every deliberation, we must consider the impact of our decisions on the next seven generations." Every time you use a Seventh Generation product you are making a difference by saving natural resources, reducing pollution, keeping toxic chemicals out of the environment and making the world a safer place for this and the next seven generations.

You have come to the site about cosplay. About part of it that usually remains behind of a scene, bright flashes of cameras and enthusiastic exclamations of friends, fans and familiar. But, despite of it obscurity from all of the fans, this part is the most creative.
As you can guess this site is basically about creation of a cosplay. I think, many beginners often ask a questions «Where do I get this patterns? », «How can I make this sword? ». On this site many of them will find the answers. Here I will try, as it possible to describe process of making all of that things.
In due course the site will acquire more new articles. And I hope that it becomes both the excellent grant for beginners, and an interesting source of the information for those who is fond cosplay for a long time.
If you had a desire to place here the articles or photos offers you can write directly in the guest book or to my e-mail.

Listen to "From The Hose 3: Deep Sea Edition"
Summer tour is just two days away, and I thought it would be fun to drop another mix tape on Type II nation. Yes, during the last episode I said we were on hiatus until tour starts. And even though this isn't a "regular" episode, it still takes some sweat and tears to make it all happen. But guess what? I'm freaking excited for tour to start. So here we are. Queue this baby up on your travels this summer and get ready for some face meltage. Can you figure out the "theme" and/or the track list of this FTH? Leave a comment below.
Be sure to keep Type II locked, as we will be bringing you reviews of every show at some point (probably relatively untimely versus the blogs, but that's how the podcast cookie crumbles).
Thanks for listening,
PS: Be sure to check out volume 1 and volume 2 if you haven't already.

I am looking at buying a 100 farmall and it has a fast hitch. I want to know if my Cub's fast hitch plow will work on the 100? I know my yard rack, back blade, and fast hitch disk will work on the 100 but what about the plow?
I hope the wife finally gives me the ok to bring this 100 home it has the fast hitch and factory front blade.
the bad news is it has a little antifreese in the oil. the guy I am getting it from works at the IH dealership and the guys replaced the head gasket when he bought it and said the cylinders still had the cross hatching in them but the figured that the leak is at the o-rings where the sleeves push in. What do you guys think? Should I worry? Or get it? The price is right I think considering the fast hitch and blade.

I wore out the Typo keyboard for iPhone in less than 72 hours
If you follow me on Instagram or Twitter, you've been seeing some of my updates as I put the BlackBerry-esque Typo keyboard for the iPhone to the test. Now it's time for a bigger update to the in-depth Typo review I posted previously.
In that review I noted that the build quality felt a little on the cheap side and that durability was something I had concerns about. It didn't take long for me to run into an issue. Less than 72 hours of use later (and that was really at 50% use as I've been dual-wheeling the Typo and my P'9982 all week), the E button quit working reliably on the Typo. You can see the evidence in the Instagram video below. Sometimes it still works, but more often than not it doesn't register a click.
Laurence Hallier, the founder of Typo, saw the Instagram post and was quick to follow up with me via email, letting me know that they had not to date experienced that with any of their units, and that he would send me a new one and a return envelope so I could send back my busted unit for them to examine.
From there, I followed up with some additional details on the way the E key was behaving, to which Laurence diagnosed the likely culprit as a broken click dome or (or it simply quit making contact).
Laurence also let us know they've been working on improvements to make the keyboard noise quieter. They just received another batch of 1,000 pre-production units which feature new silicon that makes for a quieter typing experience. Personally I don't mind a "clacky" keyboard, but Laurence says he's really liking the new units, so he's eager to get my feedback on them. Laurence also reiterated that he "got into this to build the best and fastest keyboard experience for iPhone and we continue to make improvements and adjustments to make sure our production units are perfect."
As for why I'm posting about an iPhone keyboard on a BlackBerry website? That's easy. Because it absolutely looks like a BlackBerry-made product. I'll circle back with another update once I log some finger mileage on the new Typo.

I just dropped my Z10 for the third time. Ouch!
Luckily my Z10 is okay.
An iPhone breaks if someone on the other end of a call speaks too harshly. The build quality is pitiful, and yet for some reason people imagine they're premium phones.
GrahamPink Jan 13, 2014 at 2:15 am
Apple's advertising is cool, so if the commercials are cool, the product must be as well.
This is unfortunately the way 99% of consumers think.
chiamattt Jan 13, 2014 at 3:39 am
The only unfortunate thing is that BB commercials aren't cool. I like the BB experience, so I will probably stay BB forever. People who will always like the iphone experience will probably always stay iphone. That's fine. But if BB could get the vast number of people who don't care, why wouldn't they choose the company that has the coolest advertising and app selection?
Dannynutdude Jan 13, 2014 at 6:00 am
Actually, the build quality is amazing on the iPhone, it's the best in the market right now . I banged the power of my power button on my Z10 super hard on the corner of a desk and there's marks around the button to prove it. Occasionally the button stops working for a minute which prevents me from turning off the device. The power button is so thin compare to the iPhone's + it's made of some sort of magnesium alloy which is softer than aluminum if I'm correct

I find it senseless that he is actually giving it more publicity. Like it was said in The Wolf of Wallstreet....There is nothing like bad publicity. They are getting much attention. Kevin is just a confused phone user. Seems to me, the fact that he started crackberry is kinda like the only reason he is still using BlackBerry now. My opinion tho.

@sirjis look closely and you will see BlackBerry imbeded in the red one. It was when blackberry wanted to partner with google. Android doesn't need my publicity anyway, they are already huge
james pisano Jan 12, 2014 at 10:02 pm
I imagine some economic entities benefit from any publicity, that is, no publicity is bad publicity for them. However, it seems others might be hurt by bad publicity. There is also a difference in the subject of the bad publicity.
For instance, if I am Miley Cyprus or whoever, the publicity I've been getting, despite being derogatory, probably helps me raise awareness for my brand, which has to do with my singing; my core business. Granted, I would also be an entertainer, but people go to shows to listen as much as to watch and will go to see a "train wreck" just as they would go to see a perfect show.
On the other hand, if I am a restaurant and I get detogatory publicity about health department violations, that would likely hurt my business.
My point is, I cannot see how Typo having bad publicity about their keyboard quality, is good for their business, in part because the keyboard quality IS their entire business, and maybe also in part because they are a start up company.

@james pisano to start off, there are a whole lot of people that moved from blackberry to iPhone. Many of them hate typing on the iPhone but that hasn't made them switch back to bb. Now, here is someone offering something almost equal to having your blackberry but with all the apps and goodies you want from ios. These bad comments don't have enough weight to warrant someone not to purchase it. One key not working could be an individual product fault. So what Kevin is purporting here is quite nothing of a big deal here and more publicity for typos here.
BB30000 Jan 13, 2014 at 12:35 am
Are you questioning why Kevin uses a BlackBerry? Yikes. Lol. Obviously working for Crackberry will make you use a Blackberry product, but perhaps you should reverse that question....If he did not work for Crackberry, would he have ever owned a Gold Iphone?

ronniell Jan 13, 2014 at 2:01 am
@bb30000 you know what's funny, even in that piece he wrote about the gold blackberry he saw at the CES he belittles the product by saying at that price with OS7, he would be stupid to buy it. He should know better by now in the sense that the older models still outsell the BB10's, so why throw most dust on it. To me I think he likes apple products but crackberry just keeps him on bb10
BB30000 Jan 13, 2014 at 2:16 pm
First off, the Gold BB7 phone was not at CES, rather was at the Aria Crystal Shops Porsche Design Store. Also $20,000 was the reason not to purchase the phone, not sure what you read.

I do miss the keyboard and I've been waiting since the Bold 9900 to come back to BlackBerry but the Q10 missed the mark, for me. Unfortunately, there was no way I was going to go to a smaller screen. Hopefully the next QWERTY device from BlackBerry has a bigger (taller) screen and I'll be first in line for that device; apps be damned.
Observation Junkie Jan 12, 2014 at 7:34 pm
Maybe this is an opportunity for BlackBerry to explore a keyboard option with a larger screen?
Posted via CB10 from my Z10.
Plazmic Flame Jan 12, 2014 at 7:52 pm
Hopefully. I was saying they needed to do this before BB10 came out but what's always ironic is remembering that group of Silicon Valley people that wanted to save BlackBerry but they shunned the idea of a 3.5 inch TALL screen QWERTY..... and they are where they are now...
I really hope Mr. Chen see's the light. Clearly with the iPhone and it's 4.0 inch screen, the typo keyboard sits on it just well. It isn't "top heavy" as naysayers always like to say and even if it was built as apart of the device, it would be bottom heavy as BlackBerry always does the balance right. I can talk about this for days....
BlackBerry, next QWERTY, do it right. 4-inch, TALL, screen with the iconic keyboard, great battery life: I'll be first in line.
JRF_1986 Jan 12, 2014 at 11:54 pm
That is a phone I would buy, say a Q10's keyboard on a Z10? Maybe even something around the size of the Z30?
Posted via CB10 on my Z10
Plazmic Flame Jan 13, 2014 at 12:41 am
The Z10 with a keyboard would be nice. Maybe bring the screen down to 4.0 inches from 4.2 inches, but still keep it wide and tall. A Z30 with a keyboard would possibly be too unwieldly just because of the 5 inch screen.
bpmg4u Jan 12, 2014 at 8:40 pm
I have to tell you that, as much as I thought I'd never be able to live without my hard keyboard on the Torch (9800/10), when it came time to upgrade, the Q10 left me as cold as the Polar Vortex of 2014. I was with you on the "X-nay the small screen-eh."
So, a shiny new Z30 came home from the store with me and - solely IMHO - the hard keyboard can go suck it.
The Z30 virtual keys are freakin' HUGE for my "non-skinny" fingers and I can punch out lines and eMails a LOT faster than I ever could on the clickety-clack keys. PLUS, the Z30's screen is amazing!
I didn't see the apps issue as a concern - and still don't - and the Z30 and its keyboard keeps rocking it out for me day-by-day.
The ONLY thing I'm baffled by & ticked off about is the regressive development of various BB10 features & programs (not being able to shut the device "down" by timer and eMail setup limitations to name just two).
Maybe that's a possible alternative for you ... ? Give it shot; you may end up liking it as much as Iove mine.
Just My 2 cents from our penny-less country.
Dwaynie Boy Jan 12, 2014 at 11:02 pm
+1, bold 9900 was my last keyboard BB, I wanted a bigger screen but concerned about using a full touch screen, Q or Z? read reviews on how typing was actually easier on the Z so I made the plunge and haven't looked back while i type this on my Z10, now I want the Z30 =:(

Bold 9900 = 2.8 inches

I guess technically, yeah, you're definitely right but.... ya... 3 inches, too small in this era of large screens.

There is a difference between a good copy and a bad copy and you cant copy BB people who care about putting a quality phone together.

Buying one today!!! no not really. Q10 till Hammersmith! Then Q30
Foolish, I Hammered a Curve for 2 1/2 years heavy and the keyboard was cherry pie the whole time. All at the start of the first iphone. I was ten times more productive than that piece of junk.
thatplaybookguy Jan 13, 2014 at 7:58 am
Same here, had a curve 3g and mashed the hell outta the keyboard, dropped it off the top of an 11 story parking garage, left it on top of my car and it fell off on the highway. Phone still works. Gave it to my sister a year ago and she loves it. She's dropped it many many times and it is her daily device. Says the KB is working fine and never an issue. My niece however has gone through 6 iphones. All the same issues, small crack in lower left of screen and the home button keeps breaking.
I don't want to say sue BlackBerry sue... but they could use the cash.

We flog the guts out of our keyboards. And they may go a little soft and less clacky, but that's just a sign you've barely broken it in. I wonder how many presses the alt and left shift key have endured on my Q since I got it in July.

Well, looks like he got a defective unit. It's nice of the Typo people to send him one of the newer units. Who better to test their product than Crackberry Kevin? I'm under the impression that it's actually a good product over all, and I bet there are a lot of iPhone users who are chomping at the bit to have a decent keyboard on their phones. They still can't enjoy instant actions and keyboard shortcuts, but I imagine it's only a matter of time till someone develops an app for that. The game is afoot!

To everyone ragging on Typo for it being "cheap": Do you not know what pre-production means? I'm actually pleased to see they're owning up and working to improve the accessory. Whether or not it'll make it to market if BB has anything to say about it is another story.
Right, so you show up to the largest electronics show in the world and give out a defective device that can't last 72 hours. In what universe would someone do this, particularly when first impressions are CRITICAL to financial success. This has scam written all over it and TYPO is just looking to scam a few more people before they go bust. I think Mr. Seacrest is about to learn a very valuable lesson, "a fool and their money are easily separated."
Armada Jan 13, 2014 at 1:33 am
"Do you not know what pre-production means?"
Do you know how a business operates? Never and I repeat never should a small start up put out such a defective product for trial proposes. This is a company that has zip for cash flow and is living off venture capital dollars. There is a good chance their backers will pull their support. This ill conceived stunt was a self inflicted gun shot to the head. No need for BlackBerry to sue as they are imploding all by themselves.

Is it not possible and most likely that this was Typos plan all along? It's absolutely brilliant! Copy the BlackBerry keyboard knowing that they will be sued and at the same time being prepared to pay BlackBerry a patent fee.
The amount of free publicity they have received is worth millions and millions of dollars. That money they saved in advertising can pay some lawyers and pay BlackBerry to settle the law suit. These are some smart business people. If you search BlackBerry on Google news there are hundreds of articles, TMZ, CNN, Bloomberg, MSMBC, the list goes on. Brilliant I say.

Doesn't matter how he spins it, you can't downplay talking and sporting anything other than BlackBerry if your the leader of this site. I can only see this this getting worse if he keeps toying around with other operating systems. Kind of like Alicia texting from and Apple etc....

I wonder how the Typo founder feels about Kevin saying that Typo ripped off BlackBerry? I agree with Kevin.

I don't know who at Typo ok'ed having Kevin as a tester but it was clearly a high risk strategy. If it gets the thumbs up then that is high praise indeed.
How the company deals with problems will also shine in a positive manner for those who might be sitting on the fence.
So far the firm looks very eager in this regard so I suspect any quality issues could be easily (and quickly) dealt with.
Hopefully they will fall foul of patent infringement.
In any case I have a question for CrackBerry. If one of these cases was available for the Z10/Z30 (obviously made by BBRY) would anybody consider buying one?
Just a hypothetical question.
If you are wondering, I would not: the Z10 virtual keyboard is tastic!
thatplaybookguy Jan 13, 2014 at 8:07 am
If BB made one for z10 and it was in good slim form factor, I would buy one. But I am prolific with the osk and would miss the flick words. When I need a keyboard, which is hardly ever, I pair my ps3 keypad and it does the trick, with a mouse option....

Very nice now ur spreading negative news about an excellent product which helps gives an option to have a keypad on an iphone, and about a button that stopped working.
Let me tell you this The first q10 I bought always kept restarting and it bricked and I had it replaced cause it was faulty. Does that make the q10 a bad product. Absolutely not. It was defective and got it replaced that's all.
Since when does cb write negative posts. Typo is an excellent product and I reccomend it to all iphone users to buy it, if you want a keypad. Please keep it clean Kevin. we don't need to write a negative article on a product to boost BlackBerry. BlackBerry has a good image in the market world for a long time. what the future will bring I don't know but this article was really unnecessary.

Not that I'm defending the keyboard by any means but I used to sport a 9930 that the keyboard did the same thing except mine was the space bar that would stutter.
My point is that we shouldn't be judging it based on one test. I think the keyboard is a waist of money but none the less I'm still curious to see how it fairs after Kevin second test.

I agree that the keyboard is a blatant rip off of BlackBerry's iconic design. I use a Q5 and a Z10. I love them both but do find that for days of intensive texting the Q5 is my preferred choice. I'm sure Q10 users will agree. I do not have any appreciation for the iPhone and am a dyed-the-wool BlackBerry user, especially with BB10. Now as to the "idea" behind the add on keyboard case Typo has developed, I kind of like it......please note I said I Iiked the "idea", not the product. It makes me wonder why BlackBerry hadn't developed such a device for their Z10, Z30 and soon to be launched Jakarta device which won't have a keboard. Now I know that such an add on device may stunt sales of BlackBerry's Q5 and Q10, but I don't think so given that their users are pretty much hard core QWERTY users anyway. If BlackBerry had launched such a case for it's keyboard-less devices I think it would have been a hit as it offers more options to BlackBerry users. For the time being, stay the course and sue the heck out of Typo and Seacrest for their blatant ripoff of the BlackBerry keyboard. BlackBerry Rules!

If you can program it to do €, £ or ¥ instead of $ then it is already better keyboard than BlackBerry... ;-)

Still a new product I'm sure it will get better. This makes the iphone more appealing but I love my q10. #keyboardsftw do they work for droids too?

Go figure. They can imitate it but they will never duplicate it. Durability is not in their nature.

I think Seacrest doesn't have to do any advertising, crackberry is doing it all for him for free

Meh... this POS doesn't deserve a space in crackberry website... this review to is irrelevant as I don't own an iPhone, should stay in imore. We all its a rip off and a piece of junk. Case closed no need for an update.

Q10 + iPad Mini = perfect couple! lol...

As I flick with my touch screen I can't help but feel a guilty sense of glee that, this cheap imitation has broken down partially within a week.
Still hope they sue the bloody thing into nonexistence or some fee associated manufacturing patent. Bad Seacrest, down boy, down.
.1925 bangingest version, so frickin' good. Zeddy approves.

To me this was a missed opportunity by BlackBerry because they half assed the Q10. The Q10 should have had a bigger screen to what the iCrap looks like with the typo except with the width of the Q10 from the get go. I seriously hope BlackBerry rethinks this for their next iteration of the Q10.
My z10 fell like 20 times out of my pocket and it has just 1 lite scratch under the BlackBerry logo and thats it...the iphone build quality is good but it will brake fast because of the materials they use. its a Design object because Apple is all about Design. Its not about durabilty. It is designed to look and feel good in the hand. The build quality on most BlackBerry is durable. Its like Lenovo says "for those who do" and thats all about lenovo in just 1 sentence. BlackBerry has to find something similar.
