I hope I can bump up this old thread, but I am in the same situation more or less.

I need to get a new phone to complement my N900 and I too cannot purchase Jolla from my country.

I was also looking at BB Z10 or Z30. The Z30 has the advantage of larger screen but lower PPi whereas the Z10 has the smaller screen, smaller (but replaceable) battery but higher PPI.

The Z10 I can also get for around 190 dollars in a brand newish condition. I personally cannot tolerate android as a platform, and windows phone is too simplistic for someone like me who is spoiled by the crazy multitasking induced ADD by the N900.

So would you recommend a Z10 for a N900 user? Please do let me know about the pros and cons of getting that. Remember that I can get one for around 190 USD, maybe even slightly cheaper.

Is it perfectly capable for emails/general browsing/android apps? Is there any way I can manage the browsing experience like I did on the N900 with microb browser for complex websites and opera for general browsing?

Much thanks in advance.
