    Default So I was watching CBS's Elementary and it looked like there might have been a BB10 phone in it!

    Look at 11:19 in the most recent episode (avalible on cbs's website). I swear that looks like a Blackberry 10 L-Series phone; the camera is not at all shaped like an iPhone 5. And, since the character of Watson used a BlackBerry Torch earlier, it makes sense. And then, at 19:32! The iPhone camera shape is not that; it has no box. And... the phone at 19:32 is white! A white BlackBerry 10 L series? I don't know, it could be the lights and it looks at points like an iPhone. Take a look at it; see if you think I am right?

    No its an iPhone. If you listen carefully before 11:19 the iPhones makes the slide unlock sound.

    Hmm... You are probably right. But we have seen fakes before; note the android admiral in the sprint commercial with BBOS on it. The other way around?

    Yes, I remember Watson using a BB in earlier episodes. There's another show - Scandal - about Washington politicos. Most of the characters, including the main character, used BBs. Made sense given it's about government. Almost all of the phones are now Windows 8 phones in both shows!! ! They are not iPhones. The home screens were shown off with full screen shots a couple of episodes ago. I guess Microsoft paid the shows to replace their BBs with Windows 8 as a part of their platform launch. Sherlock was even putting the typing pad together with the Surface tablet in a recent show. I guess it's all part of Microsoft's billion dollar marketing program. Maybe BB should return the favour in 2013.

    All of those shows change devices weekly. With the higher production costs to compete, product placement is a hot selling item. You'll see the same characters using a different device every episode.

    Some shows change regularly, but there are other like Hawaii Five-o which stick with the same products and is usually one big MS and Chevy advert.

    One definite bb sighting, in that Tim Allen sitcom, he has a porsche design blackberry.
