Do any of the collectors have the BlackBerry Colt or the BlackBerry Milan? Especially curious about the Milan. Was there a prototype of the Z10 that was not a developer model?

Those would be about as hard to find as a z50 which has only made an appearance in the wild once

The colt is a miniature PlayBook. Milan.. Is this the same as the z30 replacement? Thought that goes by another name.

Colt was to be the first "Phone" to Run QNX although the cyclone was first device. Neither made it to the public

[Carjackd]

I can only assume the Milan is what eventually ended up as the first BlackDroid

[Carjackd]

Just meaning the design itself

Z30 replacement was the z50, it showed up at the Ottawa Meet up in May

And if the owner is watching and wants to sell it. I'm interested

I've seen colt, it is the mini play book that became the Z10. It was running modified PlayBookOS so yes QNX. Never see Milan.

No that device was the BlackBerry 10 Alpha.

I understand that perhaps the Colt was a version of a keyboard device that was running a QNX Beta OS. I think the need to develop an all touch phone and the fact that they had the Playbook put a stop to the Colt.[

We have only seen a render of the Milan. There was probably a prototype though running BBOS. I say this because the concept was run past some carriers who were currently selling the Torch and they did not see the need.


There was also a device or possibly just a render called the London. It looked like a silver Z10.

If there are some interesting prototypes lingering around, BlackBerry should put them in their “museum”.

They should let me put them in my museum if they don't want them in theirs

The swag is starting to trickle in. Blackberry golf ball arrived today...the seller buds boutique on ebay threw in the cloth and the pen.

Passport is such a cool phone, especially the black and red. Wish I would have been a blackberry fan earlier, I'm a bit late to the party but enjoyed my PRIV and now KeyOne.

Saw this on Facebook. My buddy owns a video store and become the owner of a pile of blackberry devices. Lol

The 5810 and the 957 were found on ebay new in the box unopened. The 850 and 950 were used but in really good shape and operational. If seen some Compaq /rim 957 on ebay recently. There is always used ones kicking around on ebay. It's more difficult to get them new in the box

Oh thanks.
Yes I've seen them on eBay. Got a great deal for a BNIB 5810 about this time last year. But then it was deliver on a rainy day and the postman didn't even bother to cover the lot of parcels he was carrying so my 5810 took a shower and drowned. Was so mad that day.

I am sending kev6n a PM and hope that will get his attention. He just joined CB so he might not be in the habit of check in on this forum yet.

He may not have anything I already have. I already have a few prototypes.


I'm interested in whatever anyone has although I have mentioned that to others and told them "tell me what you want and how much for shipping" then.....crickets. So I don't get my hopes up around here.

Lol, yes similar thing happened to me, and rather more often as my shipping address is in Singapore.
But I have a lot of patience and it never hurts to ask.
Shipping cost hurt though, badly, especially from CAN.
