Didn't find a BlackBerry Priv among your presents but still really want one? You might want to hit up the Daily Steals site then. Right now, they're offering up unlocked versions of the BlackBerry Priv for only $650 USD.
Sure, that's not really a 'steal' considering you can purchase the device from ShopBlackBerry right now in a bundle with a Leather Smart Flip Case and a Sync Pod for $699, but hey, if you only want the device $50 saved is still $50 saved.
Sadly, the Daily Steals site doesn't lay out which version you're exactly getting but there's no mention of wireless charging in their specs listing, so you're kind of on your own there. Anyone picking one up?
