Since we've just had Christmas and I suspect BlackBerry sales were pretty good in December I was curious following on from the recent earnings call to see whether consumers had purchased BlackBerry 10 or a legacy device for themselves or a loved one.
Price always is an issue with the two operating systems - unless you are here in the UK where Carphone Warehouse sell the Z10 for just £150 on Pay As You Go. That said - times are hard and with legacy handsets selling for much less, could the trend set out in the earnings call have continued over Christmas?
Hit up the below poll if you wouldn't mind and select your weapon of choice - sort of! Depending on which model you purchased feel free to let us know in the comments. Once again, if you can state what region in the world you are in it would help us get a bigger picture of what's happening where in terms of BlackBerry sales.

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...
From the forums: The BlackBerry PlayBook 10 concept and this one looks a real beauty
Currently, as far as we know, another PlayBook isn't on the cards anytime soon for BlackBerry. That doesn't stop our CrackBerry forum members from wanting a new and improved BlackBerry 10 tablet though. Andreas Kimishis1 has come up with yet another concept and I must say that it looks glorious. Since BlackBerry confirmed that the original PlayBook would not a get BlackBerry 10 update...
From the forums: Another BlackBerry Windermere concept
Judging by the amount of comments we seem to get on our concept posts it would appear that seeing what we may or may not get from BlackBerry in the future is rather popular. The above concept arrived the other day from form member ummie4 and while it looks pretty darn sweet I'm not sure we'll see a design like this go into production. The big difference here compared to other Q30/...
