Talk about CrackBerry Heaven... I got a PlayBook OS 2.0 Update and a Porsche Design P'9981 BlackBerry in the same week!

By Kevin Michaluk on 24 Feb 2012 03:49 pm

Talk about a wicked week of awesomeness for this BlackBerry Addict. First we get BlackBerry PlayBook OS 2.0. Then I get the Google + App for BlackBerry I've been waiting for (Add Me to Your Circles!) and then the good 'ole DHL man dropped off the phone my heart has been desiring for a while now... the Porsche Design P'9981 Smartphone by BlackBerry. Talk about CrackBerry Heaven!

It's been a crazy busy week for me, so now I'm off to play with these new gadgets so I can hit ya back up here next week with some CrackBerry Kevin styled in-depth reviews. Stay tuned!

PS. If you happen to own a P'9981 and want to be CrackBerry famous, send us in a photo of you and your P'9981 to editorial@crackberry.com!

Congrats Kevin! Compliments of RIM?

thevizer Feb 24, 2012 at 3:52 pm

okay... i'm the biggest fanboys of blackberry i know. but...

boy is that interface of the Porsche design BB ugly. looks like it was built by NES. bright green and pale purple? it looks like a nike shoe from 1983, not from Porsche...

That said... giveaway!?!?!?!?!?!

Judging by looks is quite ignorant from my viewpoint. I have two NES's and I think the retro look is nice! (I might get a pentium 1 case and put my next computer into it, or better yet, 80386 case. Nice and roomey!)

maam Feb 24, 2012 at 3:53 pm

Holy shi*t nice!! Sooo lucky eh

Heh heh.

CrackBerryTorch9800 Feb 24, 2012 at 3:54 pm

It's too bad its basically the same phone as the 9900 and they didn't upgrade it really. For 2 grand they should have up'd the processor, ram, camera. Have fun kevin enjoy, im glad im not your bank account lol

bitek Feb 26, 2012 at 7:27 am

Jake2826 Feb 24, 2012 at 3:55 pm

Kevin Michaluk Feb 24, 2012 at 3:57 pm

Send in a photo of you with your P'9981!

ranchlizard Feb 24, 2012 at 3:57 pm

You deserve it, I think, from all the hard work you do for RIM!

EchuOkan1 Feb 24, 2012 at 3:58 pm

You are lucky. I have been wanting one of those also. Enjoy it! =0)

Ruslan Botsyurko Feb 24, 2012 at 3:58 pm

Wow, BlackBerry awesomeness overload :) Grats and enjoy your new gadgets Kevin ;)

Maxey05 Feb 24, 2012 at 3:58 pm

Now you officially own all the Blackberry Devices!

pythons Feb 24, 2012 at 3:58 pm

There is NO WAY that phone has an EDOF camera....
...Or does it?

Does Google maps fully work on it and can it use a quick deposit banking app?

SaltySnack Feb 24, 2012 at 4:00 pm

Sweet Kevin so jealous :-p oh yeah you also got Zach Gilbert this week...... Big week big week

ugotme Feb 24, 2012 at 4:03 pm

Very Nice. So who gets the bold you have been using?

ChibiBlackSheep Feb 24, 2012 at 4:05 pm

DJBS4LIFE Feb 24, 2012 at 4:05 pm

Sexy ass pic!

tchamlett Feb 24, 2012 at 4:05 pm

Everyone in my office has an ipad i would love to have the rapid charger/ stand to give all my drooling coworkers even more reason to envy my Playbook.

npunk42 Feb 24, 2012 at 4:08 pm

Good one Kevin. Is there any data on how many of those phone were/are being made? Are we to expect in 6 months we could buy one from Staples for 249.00?

sectionsix Feb 24, 2012 at 4:08 pm

Can I have your previous phone?

spencerdl Feb 24, 2012 at 4:09 pm

It must be NICE to be you....:) congrats

bizzyqu Feb 24, 2012 at 4:10 pm

I want my porsche theme back...stupid 7.1

Mazzorz Feb 24, 2012 at 4:10 pm

WOW!!! Kevin way to throw salt in our eyes ......-_-. Grats.

Teemu2 Feb 24, 2012 at 4:15 pm

Wow, I guess the wink and nudge does work! I have been a long time lurker, but decided to register to say congrats and imply that one of your 9900's should be sent to an iPhone user with a Playbook looking for a bridge partner. Now is your opportunity to convert me. Heck, I even registered to Crackberry before imore. ;-)

BaconMunch Feb 24, 2012 at 4:15 pm

does your $499 clock app looks beastly on the porsche bold?
