I've only tried it in store, so my opinion may change after using it for a while.
From the time I spent with it, it feels like a touch screen phone with a keyboard, which isn't what BB is _about_. Without the trackpad, you're forced to touch the screen, and use the keyboard only for typing. That's a big no-no for me, as I completely avoid touching the screen on my Bold. I guess it just comes down to individual preference.
That being said, I will still probably get the Q10 when my contract expires.
