The editors didn't like
Lack of organizer apps and email client

A bit pricey for its set of features
Needs a separate BlackBerry phone to use some features.
Initial software is buggy and lacks polish
No integrated e-mail
Contacts
Or calendaring
Awkwardly designed onscreen keyboard
No expandable storage
Flash experience is underwhelming
Doesn't come with much functionality out of the box
Bridged file access didn't work for me
Crashes and other issues under high memory load
No dedicated email or calendar apps yet
Hampered by lack of apps at the moment but that will surely change quickly
Power/wake button is a bit too recessed
Pricing could be more competitive.
Software feels sloppy
No native email or calendar
Third-party support is awful
Still no expandable storage
OS can be finicky at times
No native third-party integration
Official apps from A-list third-party developers are missing
Some hardware issues and significant software bugs. No native email support at launch—only browser bookmarks for Webmail sites. Bridge support for BlackBerry phone sync is not yet finalized. No video chat despite frontfacing camera.

No app support.
