Good Afternoon!
With less that 30 minutes until the launch of the BlackBerry Passport I decided to setup this announcement thread as I'm not expecting an official thread from O2!
Please leave your constructive thoughts here to try and keep this launch info and members thoughts all in one thread. (If possible 
)
Please try to remain On Topic.
You can follow the launch in the BlackBerry Live Stream here: http://live.blackberry.events/
So Forbes is calling the Passport sexy and cool, and have provided a neat infographic on people's opinions on the phone when they first see it:
We also have influential people like Lord Alan Sugar, Jason Calacanis, Tim Allen and Piers Morgan praising the Passport (please not, not all of these people are influential...I'm looking at you Piers). Tech2 calling it "the truly innovative smartphone of 2014" , positive reviews from other sites like knowyourmobile.com and its selling out wherever it is available...yet O2 have deemed the phone not suitable for its customers!
@Chris_K Can I ask another question since I havent had an answer to my last one...this "panel" of "experts" who decide which phones are best for O2 and its customers....do they actually use the phones before deciding?

If public opinion counts for anything O2 really need to stock this. I too would like a valid reason for this glaring omission.

I would agree with all of the above. The fact that the Blackberry Passport is selling out wherever it is stocked shows that O2 have made a massive error of judgement.
