So tempted by the slide out keyboard! Unfortunately the phone is just far too expensive to justify. Am hoping Blackberry will release a more budget version that has the same slide out keyboard form.

Or wait for the second-user ones to trickle in, that's what I did with the Passport and then found out it wasn't right for me (rather do that for £250 vs. the £550 RRP or whatever it was).

I'd rather they release another phone with the same spec but with a better build quality and a lower price. I can't see many people switching to Blackberry's at the current price for the priv.

Want one but just too expensive. Samsung now sell a snap on keyboard cover to go on the front of some of their phones which is an alternative option.

You need to watch the Priv prices carefully. If they don't sell well, the prices could come down significantly as Blackberry try to get rid of them. I agree- right now it's just too expensive
