sk8er_tor Jan 10, 2013 at 6:52 pm
Especially since the picture above mentions the PlayBook as well!
Jake Storm Jan 10, 2013 at 8:35 pm
Hellz yeah!
NamelessStar Jan 10, 2013 at 4:24 pm
im amazed by this considering its coming out in like 20 days but hey always a shocker with new things
LongLeggs Jan 10, 2013 at 6:25 pm
It's not coming out in 20 days, it's being announced in 20 days. It will probably be a few weeks after.
NamelessStar Jan 11, 2013 at 8:46 am
its totally dependant on carriers and Rogers is solid always 24-48 hours after press launch event they have the device on the shelvs
BB_Bmore Jan 10, 2013 at 4:34 pm
Awesome....will this work on my 8330!?!?!? BB10 FTW!!!
Boldened Jan 10, 2013 at 4:41 pm
U can check out the release notes on the developer update page. It's a small list of fixed issues and some other knows issues mainly i guess but a welcomed update none the less
ddeacon Jan 10, 2013 at 4:49 pm
The alpha simulator is updated as well. I have to say there is a noticeable speed improvement. Default memory size is 2GB now.
batrad Jan 10, 2013 at 4:50 pm
still no email support :(
crwblyth Jan 10, 2013 at 4:53 pm
This update brought "LD", "LT", "MYVER", "MYPIN", "MYNUM" etc.
Noticeable speed increases. BBM is more reliable.
Swipes are easier, including unlock and swipe up to peak at the hub (which is still locked)
This is on the Dev Alpha B.
kuffkuff Jan 10, 2013 at 9:53 pm
EXCELLENT i was missing that shortword feature
edyb Jan 10, 2013 at 4:55 pm
Sadly I won't experience this update, as I mailed my Dev Alpha unit back to RIM for some BB10 LE Blackberry Developer Reward Goodness. Can't wait! Missing my Dev Alpha already, and salivating for that BB10 LE to arrive hopefully next month. :-)

"Just think -- in a few weeks everyone will look forward to the BlackBerry 10 updates!"
...Not so much. Gotta wait for the units to hit stores first.
Sukhraj Singh Jan 10, 2013 at 5:19 pm
my update version is 10.9.9.339 and not 10.0.09.2320
RIMperator Jan 10, 2013 at 5:21 pm
10.9.9.339? Strange, quite a jump from 10.0.9.253! ;-)
Sukhraj Singh Jan 10, 2013 at 5:39 pm
here's a link to a screen shot on my twitter that show version 10.9.9.339 https://twitter.com/rajsingh092/status/289500374635802624/photo/1
justen Jan 10, 2013 at 6:45 pm
It shows that the Software Release is 10.0.9.230 and the OS Version is 10.9.9.339.
MaxxJag Jan 10, 2013 at 5:20 pm
I hope the RIM has upgraded their update servers to account for more than 10k ppl hitting the check update buttons at the same time all day long.
RIMperator Jan 10, 2013 at 5:23 pm
No update for me! Still stuck with 10.0.9.253! :(
gord888 Jan 10, 2013 at 6:13 pm
aren't we supposed to return the phones for the BB10 limited edition? or are we supposed to wait?
xtremesniper Jan 10, 2013 at 6:15 pm
It's for busy people (or slackers) like me who are submitting their apps tomorrow and thus still have their dev alphas with no limited edition in sight. *sigh*
Trini-Shan Jan 10, 2013 at 9:17 pm
Now can CrackBerry do the BB10 BBM Stress Test?
jdelvalle56 Jan 10, 2013 at 10:04 pm
Battery life? Just kidding! I can't wait!!!
stberry Jan 10, 2013 at 10:46 pm
I think this update is for playbook support !!
Jimcmf Jan 10, 2013 at 11:57 pm
Robert Scobie ( the worlds Biggest Rim Basher / Hater who wishes death and everything bad to them ) just tried the NEW BB10 smartphone. He said, " He likes it a lot".
There you have it people. If you are, or were a Rim hater and basher, once you try BB10, you open your eyes, and all of a sudden you become a Rim lover and supporter.
These phones are going to sell like crazy, and a lot of people know it!

YouTube works now with volume buttons too.
New bbm emoticons
Predictive text font changed
Keyboard sound silenced
Very noticeable stability and speed improvement
Browser share feature stable
BlackberryFan777 Jan 11, 2013 at 2:41 am
In the camera application, the toolbar at the bottom has an "edit" button, which is non-functional, but which I did not notice before. I agree with others that the UI and browser are snappier.
hundoman Jan 11, 2013 at 3:17 am
I love how when you are in the browser and selecting a text box to enter into and the browser zooms in and centers things for your entry needs to be made much easier. This could have been here before but I missed it for some reason.
Is a forward button for the browser in the works as we just have a back button now?
The Peak feature to the Blackberry Hub from any application is going to be awesome. Who needs to waste time with a home button right?
eyhab27 Jan 11, 2013 at 9:24 am
Sure does look like BB10 might launch with v10.1... seem to be getting up there with 10.0 iterations!
crackberry_newbee Jan 11, 2013 at 8:32 pm
Question, when the app goes into an active frames state will it have a "cover"? I've seen some have them but others don't like the browser. The browser, when put in active frame mode it is still open which doesn't look appealing to me, looks unfinished. Idk, I might get used to it.
