Just saw the BlackBerry classic

I was out running errands and standing in line to pay, when our of the corner of my eye I noticed the iconic BlackBerry keyboard. I stared at the device for a while and yes it was indeed the classic.

The screen looked vibrant, metal trim around the device, the back looked like plain rubber type of surface.

The device looks pretty tall, but he seemed to be quite comfortable using the device.

I live in Cambridge about 20 minutes from HQ so hopefully will see more of the device.

Before everyone asks I didn't get a chance to play with it, had the kids in the car :(.

We've seen a couple of these posts now. Looks like Frankenphone is starting to get out amongst the townspeople.

It's not released more than likely an employee testing it.

I was at the butchers store a place called Al-Nayyab it is where the sleep country and new RBC bank is. Across the street from the shoppers drug mart on hespeler.

Drooling for BlackBerry Passport!

With all the reports about Passports spotted in the wild, I wouldn't be surprised when some BlackBerry employees are testing the Classic too. Even though the focus is clearly on the Passport right now.

It's a shame though the Classic doesn't get as much attention or better said leaks.

Double-typed and posted with a BlackBerry Q10.

No pics ? Then, no fun for this BlackBerry Classic

I don't know if this info is out yet, but I want to know what BB plans to do in order to convince us (Q10 owners) to buy a BB Classic. I mean, in my person opinion I define the Classic (based on what I know so far, which is few info) as two changes from the Q10, on being a pro and other a con (my opinion). I think that making it bigger is a pro because it comes with making a higher end display and more room for a bigger battery and I think that making it with the old belt is a con because it comes with the old nightmare of answering the phone without noticing and it goes against all they spent years developing which is the BB 10 and what make the device touch friendly.
I don't know how they will make the belt work on BB 10 but I think it must be really tough for engineers making it happen.

Other thing that I want to know is if they will but a touch sensitive keyboard on the Blackberry Classic like they did on the Passport, I didn't find anything about it.

I've NEVER had the issue of accidentally answering a call with either of the old Bolds I had... Weird...
