I’ve always been a keyboard guy. It’s what brought me to BlackBerry in the first place, when I got my Curve 8300. I had already been supporting BlackBerry at work (5k-7k series), so I was already a fan. Keyboard shortcuts and hotkeys on both my PC and my phone have always been a must. I even taught myself how to theme on BBOS5 just so I could pack as many hotkey shortcuts as possible into the basic theme. It should, therefore, come as no surprise that my current daily driver is the Classic. I really enjoyed Type and Go on the Q10, and continue to on the Classic. The only thing missing, though, were my beloved original BlackBerry keyboard shortcuts. I nearly cried when they were brought back.
Ty Williams, over at the official Inside BlackBerry Help Blog, really made my day when he posted this definitive listing of the BlackBerry Classic Keyboard Shortcuts. Study it. Memorize it. Learn it. Love it. Breathe it. Live it. Keep on clickety-clicking, my QWERTY cohorts!
