Wow, do things ever change fast. When we posted this contest just a few weeks ago on December 1st, BlackBerry 10 was still called BBX and we were expecting the first next-generation BBX phone to hit the market in "calendar Q1, 2012."
Now bee-bee-ex has become BlackBerry 10 and it's going to be "late 2012" before we see any devices. We're going to stick to our guns and keep our CrackBerry Santa contest branded the same, with the same prize, but just because we're good people and don't want to see anybody wait too long, we're going to give the winner of this contest the choice to either wait it out and keep their IOU for a BlackBerry 10 phone for later in the year or trade it in early for their choice of currently available BlackBerry 7 Smartphone and an accessories package from ShopCrackBerry.com.
The contest ends Midnight PST on New Year's Eve, but we wanted to give you a good reminder before the holidays hit. If you haven't entered, click the image above or link to below to jump over the to the official contest post and leave a comment!

I was having a think about the applications I use most on my BlackBerry the other day when I realized that even though I have Skype installed I never use it. Although we have the Android version of Skype available for BlackBerry 10 users, it is a shame that we didn't ever get a native version, although the Android one does a decent job. I can remember that prior to Skype being made...
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...
