Oops. I did it again. As promised in my last Editor's Desk post, I managed to find something young, hot and sexy here in Vegas to drop some money on and record while doing it.
It's not a gold show this time, but rather a stainless steel one. Watch the video and enjoy! :)

Must-Watch Video: CrackBerry Kevin drops $2,000 in Vegas on something young, hot and sexy!
Stupid buy. Yeah, it's a nicer design then the BlackBerry Z10. But it is the same lame hardware. And the same os where so much doesn't work.
Funny. U pay 5times the price (Z10) for just a other hw-skin. For me personally, that's really stupid. U got much more for your money with one of the upcoming new BB phones. Are you using your phone or just looking at? I do pay for features and usability ... you pay much more for opticals. But this is just a phone, not a Rolex ;)
Kevin, you suck! Should have given that money to her instead. For that price she could offer you far more satisfying service that you could make the video available to all of us to remember!
everytime I watch a video of kevin A- I think he is becoming a douche, B- I think he is going to work for apple as he is becoming a douche and C- wonder how a geek with money suddenly becomes a douche?
also they all shake your hand as you leave as they are like, you just got ripped off and got me my sales figures for the year selling that phone, your a douche
That is such a sweet phone!
If you want to just give money away. Please send some my way
This is a brilliant video and it made me smile. Thanks, Kevin.
Sweet. I would love the gold one... that's only happening in my dreams since I don't have the cash flow of those Kevin O'Leary type people :D
I remember Bl1ze saying in his channel "I won't be there to stop Kevin from doing anything stupid "
Then I said... well, I remember that $500 clock app
And then thought, well, he should know by now...
It just seems I underestimated this guy.
You are now in my Bingo Book
+1
CBK... I am mildly envious. However, I am enjoying my Z30 just as much as I would be enjoying a P9982. possibly even more due to the larger and better battery. But hey, both are still amazing phones, right?

Sweeeeeeeet
Like your style Kevin.

With pride, dignity. Gotta love that. However that is over my budget my $2000. :D
Posted via CB10
I love BB but seriously that is just too much money for a phone
Kevin,
I just ended up seeing the Pebble video by Rene and Phil. I never checked out any other videos done by any other Mobile Nations crew other than the CB family (Simon is a the only one a little off tho lol). And I am so glad that the CB family videos are so much better than the other MN guys.
Rene simply needs to go out there and make a Hip Hop video and turn into Eminem or something.
Thanks for doing a great job man!
I have no words...

Why the hell is being an iphone? He should be representing the BlackBerry community!
Posted via CB10
I'm happy for you Kevin. But still I think BlackBerry should have sent you one as a present, I feel you've done greater job than their marketing division!
I wonder if it's the croco skin phone....
Am I the only one who appreciated all of the sexual innuendo in this video? That's what she saids all around.
Posted via CB10
Ok Kevin, now you should put it up in a contest. Everybody who wants to get sign up in the contest should buy something at least worth $10 from Crackberry store.
Visit my BBM Channel C000E96F6
LOVE IT!! I wouldn't mind one either! =D If they made a Porsche Design Z30, I would be all over that too!!
When will see this purchase as a crackberry.com giveaway?
THAT...Was a tough watch. Really tough. Native to Las Vegas, I'm about to lose my home here in foreclosure as this housing market is one of the worst in the nation, yet I live, eat, and breath BlackBerry to no end. More than an addiction, but this was a hard watch. God has blessed you Kevin, beyond what you've expected. Never take anything for granted, so use the phone in good health. Mazel Tov. Tough watch...
Why was it tough? I was emailed from a friend at BB that it was all setup. He never paid for it. They knew he was coming and filming ( the store signed a release). It was a freebie from BB just like all the other times.
This just seems like something I would do if I were at CES in Vegas
Sent from the coolest BlackBerry In the world, The BlackBerry Z30!!!!!!!
I like the display board in the window. Was it already there or did they put it up because they knew you'd be taping? If it was already there, then Porsche Design is doing more to market BlackBerry than AT&T stores do! :)
Hawt! You go Kevin!
Posted via CB10
Wow wonder what kind of salary Kevin is annually making? Hmmm :/
9700 Bold2 > Q10
nice man
Finally, Kevin got something useful!!
I would spend that money on strip club instead... Hahaha... Just kidding!
That girl looked curious. I Hope he demo'd BB10 for her.
Accept 2000 1's. That was classic. Great buy K.
Better to give than receive. I'll be waiting for that Porsche BB!
Posted via CB using my Q10
Man, do the damned thing! I would if I could
Posted via CB10
I'm not sure that purposely limiting the number of gold iPhones just to drive up sales on launch day makes it "exclusive." it's always going to be available to the public and at the same price as the other options out there. The Porche design BlackBerry is the epitome of exclusive, because only those that have the $$$ and gusto to buy it, can.
Posted via CB10
Nice, but I thought, you want the one with the "crocodile skin back".
Posted via CB10
Nice!!
C. R. A. Z. Y. Expensive. But I like it.
Way to start your year, Kevin. I bet now BlackBerry Santa has his eyes on what a good boy you are now.
Awesome! Bravo Kevin
You are the man Kevin...thanks for sharing !
Kevin, you're crazy :p. That's why we all love you

Love it!

I'll just wait for it to go on sale next Month. ;)
PS - Leak us your square icon file, eh? I need it to compliment my Porsche wallpaper.
Very nice. Wish I could do that.

Kevin is not actually a lucky guy... he is a smart guy... for investing US$2K, he will surely get more than that as ROI...
Posted via CB10
OMG, I thought Kevin is going to kill the Porsche P'9982 in some ways and had to drag the the end to see whether it's still alive. Luckily it is :D
Awesome good job son, I am proud of you.
BlackBerry 10 - Built to keep you moving
Knew you'd need a case!
Posted via CB10
I love the Z10, but I have to agree: 2k for a phone that is nothing more than a Z10 in a fancy case with some UI tweaks has me scratching my head. You could have bought two Z30s and gave one to the wife. That would have been a smarter investment. But hey, it's your money, right? At least you didn't piss it all on a craps table.
I used my Z10 to create this CrackBerry madness!
They had to count all those $1.00 bills...LOL

So jealous :O
Will the porsche design work on verizon? And if so where can u get it in new york?

Awesomeness: level 98
Sent flawlessly from my Z30!
I stand to be corrected if need be, and it could be my delirium due to the weather here in Nova Scotia, but wasn't it dark when Kevin went into the store and daylight when he came out??
Posted via CB10
Obscenely priced... But I still want one.
Posted via CB10
So that's how people role for crackberry? Can I work for crackberry?... what is the big difference of that phone other than it being designed by porche? Other than the keyboard does it do anything different than my z10??...are the keys made of platinum or moonrocks? I'm just trying to see the logic behind the purchase.
Posted via CB10
Well,
1. It's Porsche
2. Isn't it obvious? The looks. That and the high quality materials alone is worth buying it...

Damn I want one of those

Easy come, easy go. Thanks for spending you money in the USA.
Kevin, I am curious if Blackberry provides any special support to someone who has purchased their elite phone? Do they call you personally and thank you for the purchase? Do you get a thank-you card...etc.
David
There's no thank you card, call or something, it's just a phone lol.
What you do get though is a special owners card (proof of owner for warranty) and a support hotline.

Would the porsche BlackBerry work for Verizon?

Yes that should be the case as it is purchased unlocked at the Porsche Store.
www.mikescraftbeer.com - C00012735 Posted on my Z30
No it won't!
The P'9982 is based on the GSM Z10 (STL 100-2/3), the Verizon network (STL 100-4) uses CDMA.

Do you think there will be a Porsche Design Z30?
Should I buy a BlackBerry Z10 P'9982 with the $2,000 dollars I have left from the military? T-Mobile doesn't look like they're releasing a Z30 anytime. It would be my money's worth to buy one of these.
Posted via CB10
Just buy an unlocked Z30.
Amazingly poor value. It's true that money # brains.
Aaaaaaaaaaaadouche!

Nice! Have fun! Don't forget a snazzy screen protector!

I just gifted myself as well ..... picked up a Q30 for $149 (2 yr contract renewal) on Verizon ... decided I needed to build out the family of Blackberry items at home. Family now has 2 x Z10's, (one black, other white), 1 x Q10 (black) and now the Z30 (black) on route... not to mention three PlayBooks and a 9900 (work supplied).
Enjoy Kevin, flash it around at CES and show the type of phone a 'prosumer+' uses.
You got a Q30 pre-release for $149?!
You lucky man!
Nice CBK!

Yeah, been wondering when that would happen...too bad Porsche didn't do the Z30 instead.
Big grin Kevin.
Can't say i'd plunk down 2g's for a phone myself but kudos Kevin. You only live once. Very nice packaging indeed.

That's better then the time he bought a 500.00 app.

I would have skipped the P9982 and used the $2300 to buy a Rolex and a white Z10 instead. Just sayin'
Posted via CB10
You want to buy a Rolex for $2000? Isn't the wristband even on the stainless steel one costing more?
$2,000 for a Rolex and $300 for a white Z10??? lol I wish! I used to borrow a Rolex watch from my dad as a teenager back in the 80's, and it cost more than $2k at the time. Maybe I should steal it from my dad and sell it to you for $2K...Nah, I would not do that to my dad so never mind. ;-)
I wouldn't drop $2k on a P9982. Out and around in the public, nobody is gonna be impressed by an expensive phone, no. Expensive watch, yes. As for Kevin and his P9982, all I can say is "Each to his own".
I meant to say, "To each his own'"
I thought it was four clock apps at first. Phew !

PS. Nice Pebble you got there!
I can't believe you spent this much money on a Z10 in a fancy case. How many people sleeping rough on the streets did you walk passed on your shopping trip Kevin?
Posted via CB10
Does it mean, he should give his money away to every bum in the street? Come on...
You do the right thing Kevin :D
How about while Kevin is at CES 2014 he donates this ridiculous phone as the prize in a raffle (a prize draw) open to attendees and exhibitors for a nominal ticket price and then before the show finishes he gives the thing away and gives the money raised to a charity that does help those less fortunate than ourselves?
Nothing says "I'm all right Jack!" than the P9982. Oh wait.... Gold iPhone 5s......
"I'm all right Jack!"
2. A thoughtless self-serving person when asked to sympathise or help someone who had lost his/her job might say "Well, I'm all right Jack!".
