The time has come to announce the winner in our Win an IOU for a BlackBerry Mercury from CrackBerry Kevin giveaway
In total, we had over 12,000 BlackBerry fans enter the Win an IOU for a BlackBerry "Mercury" From CrackBerry Kevin giveaway.
Today, after recovering from a post-BlackBerry Mercury/KEYone launch party hangover, we put that list of entries into our contest winner picking machine to decide who would be the lucky recipient of the newly-christened BlackBerry KEYone.
And the winner is...
The name that got randomly spit out was CrackBerry Member twopack. However, seeing as this is the same person who made all of those awesome BlackBerry "Mercury" mockups recently, I figured you all would call B.S. and cry rigged if I only gave him the IOU. So just to be safe, we pulled a second winner from the pool, and that winner is CrackBerry Member Gebco. So instead of 1 IOU, I'm giving away 2!
Big congrats to both twopack and Gebco and BIG thanks to everyone for signing up for their chance to win. As soon as the KEYone becomes available, I'll get them both hooked up with their phones.
As you all know, this is CrackBerry which means another giveaway is just around the corner. So keep reading and checking in often as we wait for the BlackBerry KEYone to go on sale. I'm sure between now and then you'll have one, or two, or more chances to win. :)

And the winner of an IOU for a BlackBerry KEYone from CrackBerry Kevin is...
Thanks for the opportunity to win Kevin !
Congrats to the winner(s) :)
Just got an e-mail saying I won from a Michelle Haag. Is this real? Her email was @mobilenations.com. I am skeptical.

Thanks for the great contests and stunning prizes. With a zillion subscribers, chances of winning may be small, but there's always hope, and it's fun entering.

Congratulations you guys! I am super thrilled for twopack and Gebco! I want to hear all about it when y'all try out the phone. I don't know whether I will get it or not, because the Priv is on sale right now for cheaper, but I am super curious!
Darnnn, I really want it.. it's tooooo expensive for me.. cant afford it

Thank you so much!!! It's funny because I was getting more and more excited about getting this phone as I was watching reviews and in the middle of it I got the notification. Really looking forward to putting the KEYone through its paces! That keyboard looks gorgeous.

Very nice gesture of CB. I did suggest that Chen should give twopack a free device but nice to see CB step up and actually do it.
Well done

Thats what good karma gets you. Congrats twopack. I'm building a mock up of the next blackberry tablet.....you know....just in case.
Good karma from positive comments .Negative ppl here will never win
Thank you for always being awesome to the CB members Kevin!

Just kidding, Congrats to the winners.
Dammit! Lol.
Yeah, I couldn't believe it when twopack was the name. BlackBerry Gods clearly wanting him to have this phone. Think he willed it to happen. He should buy a lotto ticket next week to see if he can make it happen twice (and share the winnings with us!). :)
Instead he should create a mock up of a winning loto ticket and see what happens
Hahahaha! That's awesome that he won!
Congratulations you two
