This one cropped up in the forums recently - a new BlackBerry 10 concept design brought to us by Ziro1. Just to make things perfectly clear this is not a leaked image, but a design made up which a CrackBerry forum member would like to see at some point - and it sure looks pretty nice.
What the device roadmap holds for BlackBerry is mostly a mystery. Sure, we know that Foxconn will be making a low cost, all touch, BlackBerry 10 device for the emerging markets, but apart from that we are kind of in the dark as to what else to expect, apart from the obvious which is better hardware than we currently have.
Smartphone concepts that have a edge to edge display are certainly nothing new and this one looks quite swish, although I suspect if we were to actually get something similar I would be forever paranoid about dropping it! At first glance the 'Edge II Edge' looks to have taken some inspiration from the from the BlackBerry P'9982, although it's a lot more curvy both on its top and bottom edges.
It would be great if BlackBerry were to give us something similar to this concept, but I suspect we will see edge to edge devices from one of the other smartphone manufactures first - maybe the likes of Samsung or LG.
Either way, a concept is always nice to see and most appreciated.

Are more people going down the SIM free route?
Asking if you folk tend to buy your BlackBerry smartphones SIM free from a retailer or on a contract with a carrier may sound like a simple question, but I suspect it will be dictated slightly by where in the world you are. Many people wouldn't consider buying the device SIM free purely because it means paying for the handset in full, up front - something that most people in this day...
CrackBerry Asks: Would you want a dual SIM BlackBerry?
Having a dual SIM phone is one of those subjects that more than likely doesn't get much thought, although many folk would probably like one. The concept is certainly not a new one and for years now dual SIM devices have been cropping up in some regions around the world, but it seems that it has never taken off with any of the top end smartphone manufactures as far as I'm aware. With...
From the forums: The BlackBerry PlayBook 10 concept and this one looks a real beauty
Currently, as far as we know, another PlayBook isn't on the cards anytime soon for BlackBerry. That doesn't stop our CrackBerry forum members from wanting a new and improved BlackBerry 10 tablet though. Andreas Kimishis1 has come up with yet another concept and I must say that it looks glorious. Since BlackBerry confirmed that the original PlayBook would not a get BlackBerry 10 update...
From the forums: Another BlackBerry Windermere concept
Judging by the amount of comments we seem to get on our concept posts it would appear that seeing what we may or may not get from BlackBerry in the future is rather popular. The above concept arrived the other day from form member ummie4 and while it looks pretty darn sweet I'm not sure we'll see a design like this go into production. The big difference here compared to other Q30/...
