Social networks make noise on LTE-enabled Blackberry Z10
MANILA, Philippines - Boasting an operating system that challenges Android and iOS, RIM's latest smartphone Blackberry Z10 has done away with the company's signature physical QWERTY board popular with Filipino fans, but still made them excited enough to make it a local trending topic.

The device's capability for high-speed data connection LTE also surprised Filipino gadget geeks who could not previously wait to get their hands on Apple's iPhone 5 which was among the first devices to enable LTE.
The device's release in the Philippines on March 19 was also announced by Blackberry's celebrity endorsers such as television host Raymond Gutierrez, model Solenn Heusaff and heartthrob actor Enchong Dee on Twitter.
The celebrity tweets were posted numerous times by thousands of followers and induced inquiries on its specifications, features and, of course, unit prices.
