BlackBerry Mobile is teasing something for IFA 2017, so we're taking the CrackBerry Meetup tour on the road to Berlin, Germany to get a first hand look! RSVP now to take part in the fun!
Earlier this week BlackBerry Mobile dropped a teaser that they have something special to announce at the upcoming IFA tech show. So in true CrackBerry fashion, we're packing our bags and heading to Berlin, Germany, so we'll be there to get a first hand look at whatever this new BlackBerry hotness (or maybe darkness, based on the teaser video) may be.
Also in true CrackBerry fashion, and building on the success of the 15 meetups we've held this year, we're going to host a Special Edition CrackBerry Meetup in Berlin on August 31st. If you're a BlackBerry fan and live in Berlin or can make it there, this is a meetup you won't want to miss. The event will run from 7pm to 10pm - you can find full details and RSVP by hitting the link below.

RSVP Now for a Special Edition CrackBerry Meetup in Berlin on August 31st!
The 'teaser' only says "KEYone'.
There is no reason to believe that a KEYtwo will be released...
BB already said the KEYone would be the last smartphone designed by them.
Why would they just make a promo for some cosmetic changes to the current unit? Not.
The next step for BB to unveil a marketing program for KEYone to get the word out beyond the BB fan base.
Also, to unveil wider distribution channels, and improved Enterprise support.
They might say that they have a new joint venture for distribution through a major smartphone maker .. beyond their current supplier.
This could be the introduction of the limited edition black for Europe and hopefully world over. But I feel they will also announce their next phone or just give some teaser about their next model phones.

This is just another piece of BlackBerry's plan to provide security software for networked devices that are part of the Internet of Things (IOT).
Let's keep them going. I'd love to make it to another Meetup.

So let me get this straight, we go to Germany just to find out that the keyone will be available in black...hmmmm
Yup and yet cannot get it unlocked in Canada

Walmart still showing out of stock. Probably never had it.

Kinda ludicrous you can't get it in CANADA of all places
Yeah, me too. I'd like to know know what happened in China! ;-)
This is what happened in China, and yes, that is CBK: http://m.letv.com/vplay_30605604.html
Yes, saw that video a bit, and we all know CBK was there. But thats it, right? Nobody talks about the specs and i cant find the news in internet other than that video. Seems like they dont want people to know the specs there........strange.
It would help to hear from someone who watched the video and understands Mandarin.
I noticed someone from Berrylink was there with Kevin, but as far as I could tell using Google Translate there's not much recent news on their website.
Nobody talks (or cant talk) about China specs? Is it the same like the Indian model, minus Google Play?
I am interested to know, so if anyone knows please share. Thanks
Glad to see so much enthusiasm and well done Kev for keeping up the interest in this phone. August is still holiday time, so will help die-hards to get there. All the best with the event and I hope to be an owner by the time you swing by the local Barcelona world event next year.
Keep the momentum rolling Kevin!
If I knew this was more than the India phone, I’d fly from the USA to be there. In a heartbeat. But I suspect this is a color change and memory bump.
Is there a prediction when this "Special Edition" will be available in North America "The Homeland"???
If it were on the weekend it would be a no brainer .... but thursday mhmm.
When CBK travels I treat every day like it's the weekend.... so we can turn a Thursday into feeling like a Saturday night party if you like! (plus you know... just call in sick on Friday and it's a long weekend!!). :)
But I work from Wed-Sun. Does that mean I have to book off tomorrow?
It means you can party and go to work the next morning like the rest of the adults at the party
I'll keep that 'calling in sick' in mind ;-)
Hangover... does it count...? ;-P
• BlackBerry... where are we heading...? Pray tell... ;-D •
I am german...i know. We say: 'If you can Party, you can work'
;-)

CK already knows of course..... And I could be wrong, but between that "blackness" video (especially the paint dropping scene) and CK calling this Crackberry event "Special Edition", I think it's a dead give-a-way as to what this announcement is about. And if so, YES!!!
Guten Tag nach Deutschland... feiert schön, Leute!
:-D
(there isn't a single B in there I could duplicate... BlackBerry!)

How about... BlackBerry Begeistert Berliner Bildungsbuerger as in BlackBerry excites educated citizens of Berlin.
OK maybe a little elitist lol.... best I could come up with on the fly.
