“BlackBerry” I’m typing on one now.

Really? That's great. The Blackberry Passport was the best phone I ever had for reading FR.

Not only a wide screen, but I could zoom in and it would wrap the lines of text to fit the screen. Only phone I ever saw to do that. Don't know why.

I’m on the original BlackBerry Classic. Wonderful tactile keyboard. Yes; the text wraps to fit the screen to whatever size you want. Android won’t do that. It used to but a recent update screwed up the font.

It’s only G3, so can’t be used for a phone, but for surfing the web it’s perfect. I bought a few because I love them so much.

If Elon were smart — which, of course, he is, he’d find the RIM guys and bring back the best cellular platform ever, and keyboard.
