In speaking with Reuters, BlackBerry CEO John Chen said that within the next 18 months, he plans to introduce high-end devices that cater to the "keyboard aficionados." BlackBerry has at least three different devices in the works and that "the focus is going to be very keyboard centric."

We do know that the BlackBerry Q20 AKA the "BlackBerry Classic" is one new keyboard device that's on the way, as well as the all-touch BlackBerry Z3 that's due out in Indonesia in late April. Aside from those we haven't heard any rumblings on other new devices, so we're curious to see what turns up in the next few months.
