@SolipsismX You know what I meant, it can fit in your pocket and it's no more uncomfortable than any other large mobile phone. You didn't have to jump on me for something so trivial.
1) It is more uncomfortable just as the iPhone 6 Plus isn't as comfortable as a smaller and lighter iPhone.
2) You tried to paint the Passport as being just as comfortable as a gov't. issued passport because of a 2D measurement, which may sound great for a 30 second ad or billboard for a cheap talking point but you should know better.
2) Oh, I'd love that. The combination of your witty mind and the 'impeccable' sense of humor makes me smile at any given time of the day. People ask me "what's up" but I just can't bring across your... 'weirdness'. Simply love it.
Sorry Phil, I didn't forget about you. Yea, we'll talk more in private but I would love to meet up with you soon, you can show me the real Amsterdam or any other city that you prefer, I've never been to Rotterdam. The little Bose is actually a really nifty portable speaker, it's amazing how much bass they pump out for such a small unit. It's also a much better speaker then the Beats Pill at the same price. I have absolutely no doubt that you will go head over heals for it, especially once you hear the sound quality. The battery is also very long lasting. The only thing that you might not like about it is the weight, it's a little on the heavy side for such a small thing, personally I actually like the heft, it makes it feel like it's worth something.
I've never really gone for Bose stuff in the past as the stores around here never carried them. I found this little Bose at the Apple store, sales guy said it was their most popular Bluetooth speaker. This od course was before the Beats deal went through, I'm sure their singing a different tune now huh. Let me know what you think of them and thank you as always for such kind words, your an absolute gem of a human being. Have you ever noticed that us Europeans are a little nicer then the Americans.

Did you even read the comment I was replying too, he said the Passport couldn't fit in your pocket. Again, you know what I was trying to convey and even though it's thicker then a real passport or as flexible, it feels just fine in your back pocket. Your making this out to be more than it actually is.

1) I'm really not. I'll even move the conversation from BB to Apple. The iPhone 6 Plus is not as comfortable as a smaller and lighter iPhone in your pocket.
2) The Passport has an "executive," visual appeal but all the reviews I've read said the keyboard isn't as good as keyboard on previous BB devices. I found that to be shocking since that's the one thing BB had going for it. If they make a physical keyboard that is less effective than their previous physical keyboards then then they may start losing some of their last holdouts that have resisted moving to a virtual keyboard on more versatile devices.

I can't comment on the new iPhone 6 plus as I have yet to put one into my pocket but the length of it will probably be where the problem lies. The Passport actually fits into your pocket without exposing much of the phone itself, as in a person would probably think it was a wallet before a phone, the thing is almost a square. Look I don't want to argue, I'll use less descriptive adjectives in the future. I was just trying to say that if you can put a passport into your pocket then you should have no problem fitting the BB in as well. I got the belt clip thingy anyway to really submerse myself into the BB culture. I won't wear it though, it's for the inside of my purse, I have this little pouch which coincidently was made for passports that fits the phone perfectly. How do you carry your phone, my husband always puts his two in his coat jacket, an iPhone and a Blackberry. He just bought a iPhone 6 Plus and the BB Passport, I don't know how in the hell he is going to get around now with those two monsters. I think he's going to buy an Apple Watch so he can keep the iPhone in his bag, which means the kids will get one too, my family has more Apple gear than I do.
The keyboard is actually pretty good, you just need time to learn it. It was frustrating for me to at first but I can now type 50 words a minute. These reviewers only spend a day or two with the gadgets their reviewing, I'm sure if they spent a week using nothing but the BB as I have they would change their opinion, it just takes time like anything else. I also use that preemptive word guess thing very liberally, a feature the old BB's didn't really handle all that well, I use it now to the point where the phone is almost doing the work for me. You know, you type "t" and then you just slide up and it fills in "the", that's just a silly example but it actually does a wonderful job, if you get the hang of it you should never have to type a full word ever again making your typing nutty quick.

It very well could be. The volume and weight of the iPhone 6 series is great for those display sizes but the height of each is monstrous. I don't get why Apple want the forehead to match the chin in height. Seems like a waste to me and I feel the HTC high-end devices look better front on than the iPhone at this point because of the smaller forehead.

A big problem I see with the Passport are the squared off edges and corners. Imagine the iPhone 6 series with the same box dimensions but with the squared sizes of the iPhone 5S. It becomes more difficult to slide in and out of a pocket. Because of the iPhone 6 series curves and beveled glass I bet the 4.7" iPhone slides in and out more easily than the 4" iPhone.
Look I don't want to argue, I'll use less descriptive adjectives in the future.
I prefer more adjectives if it leads to more clarity of communication.

As someone who has owned and continues to own virtually every Apple product over the years, the iWatch is the first new device that hasn't given me a ""got to have it now" feeling. The AppleInsider article may well be painting an accurate picture of the iWatch's upcoming sales, or lack of them.
We'll find out soon enough.

The US has plastic passport cards, too, but they are the size of a CC so they fit in your wallet. What are the dimensions of yours?
We have the standard sized paper passport (with the plastic thingy inside which can break), used for international travel, and we have a cc sized plastic card, standard credit card size if I'm not mistaken, ISO/IEC7810: http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Credit_card_size#ID-1
D-3 for passport size
ID-3
ID-3 specifies a size of 125 × 88 mm (4.921 × 3.465 in). This size is the B7 format. This format is used worldwide for passports.
(Sorry, on an iPad here and copy paste + accuracy takes effort. You know I normally clean this up when posting from my desktop)
edit 2: This doesn't list the dimensions, just pointing out what they look like and how their uses differ. Do EU countries have something similar since it's so easy to travel between countries?

Lovely, you know there are lady's present. What about the Apple Watch gets you so excited if you don't mind me asking. Besides just being another gadget, what do you envision your self using it for?
I remember getting the original iphone the day it came out and most of my friends and family simply did not get it, they could not understand the big deal.
Then one by one, almost everyone went to a touchscreen phone as their next phone. Very few people I know bought another flip phone or a phone with a physical keyboard as their contracts expired after the iphone was released. Translate that to the watch and apple may have another serious hit on their hands.
That being said, I was more excited for the original iphone than the new watch. But I am not really a watch person, and a smart phone is much more of a necessity than a watch.
I'm not a watch person either, but after seeing the Apple Watch I am hooked,. The thing I like is I won't have pull my phone out of my pocket for repetitive tasks like seeing txt msgs, checking time, or seeing who email me. I'll be able to make the phone in my pocket silent and have the watch "nudge me" when someone calls, texts or emails me. I don't like taking out my expensive iPhone in public, especially in less safe places. It will also change my habit of pulling out my phone most the time and make walking on the sidewalk safer too.

So with all the toughs in the hood looking shady and tough, you are going to flash your expensive watch to check on that urgent notification instead of getting out the expensive phone its likely paired with? Good criminals will now know that if they see the watch, they will likely know to rob you of the phone as well.
So I am giving you a hard time. And these kinds of scenarios are just that, scenarios. And I really hope it doesn't happen to anyone.
I do like your use cases, however most smart watches do all of those things right now. I think my favorite part of the apple watch, having not seen one in person yet, is the way the bands attach. That looks so slick.
