http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/05/white-lumia-800-2013-05-30-01_620x340.jpgFor those of you who wouldn't touch a tactile screen if we gave you one (http://www.engadget.com/2013/05/14/engadget-giveaway-otterbox/), Verizon's just put a smartphone up for pre-order that might be preferable: the Blackberry Q10 (http://www.engadget.com/2013/05/14/blackberry-q10-verizon-sprint-t-mobile-availability/). Big Red will carry (http://www.engadget.com/2013/05/14/blackberry-q10-verizon-sprint-t-mobile-availability/) the regular black model and has exclusive dibs on the dapper white Q10we saw earlier (http://www.engadget.com/2013/01/31/blackberry-q10-flashes-pearly-whites-in-brief-sortie/), both of which are on pre-order for $200 with a two-year activation, or $600 sans commitment. On top of real QWERTY chiclets, you'll get a 3.1-inch, 720 x 720 Super AMOLED touch display, dual-core Qualcomm CPU, 2GB of RAM and Blackberry 10.0. As a bonus, Verizon's estimated ship date of June 6th might even line up nicely with the imminent arrival of a certain new version (http://www.engadget.com/2013/04/23/blackberry-10-1-official/) of the OS, too.
