Technology moves fast -- each day we see the latest and greatest innovations pop up out of nowhere, moving all things techy along at a frantic pace. One of the latest arrivals is that of the G Flex from LG. The G Flex is an Android device with a curved screen that's flexible. LG says it can take up to 88lbs of pressure before breaking while the curved designed gives it better ergonomics. Not to mention the "self-healing" coating that actually recovers from scuffs and scratches. Crazy.
BlackBerry devices have been pretty standard over the years. Flat and focused with devices ranging from QWERTY models to the full-touch of the Z10 and Z30, but what about a curved BlackBerry? Is that too far fetched?
Imagine the Z30 as it is now, only with a curved screen. A bendable, flexible Z30 that fits well in your hand and isn't flat. LG says that nearly half of all smartphones will be curved by the end of the decade, so the idea isn't really a fantasy at all.
So what we want to know is if you'd be interested in seeing a curved BlackBerry device, or is it too much of a stretch? There's no saying if one will ever exist, but if the folks at LG are right, it may one day become a reality. Hit up the poll below and sound off in the comments!

Now that the PlayBook is officially dead, which non-BlackBerry tablet would you buy next?

In fact, the first email I read this morning was from my older brother, asking me what tablet he should replace his PlayBook with. And reading through the CrackBerry forums shortly after, I came across this thread where the question...
CrackBerry Asks: Do you still use your BlackBerry PlayBook?
Looking back to when BlackBerry released their first tablet, the PlayBook, seems an age ago now. When BlackBerry 10 came to the market PlayBook users were looking forward to the new OS running on their PlayBook's as promised by the company themselves. Unfortunately, things changed and getting BlackBerry 10 onto the tablet never panned out. I don't mean to sound negative in any...
CrackBerry Asks: Do you prefer the BlackBerry Z30 in white or black?
More and more users are getting their hands on a BlackBerry Z30 as it makes its way around the globe. It's been available now for a few weeks and many are upgrading from a Z10 or Q10 with great results. While most carriers are only offering up the Z30 in the standard black version, some (like Vodafone) are offering the white version as well. There's never really been a BlackBerry that...
CrackBerry Asks: Are you running OS 10.2.1.1055?
It's not often that we see a leaked OS offer up as much as 10.2.1.1055 does. This is one leak that has seemingly topped all BlackBerry 10 leaks we've seen in the past, offering up a slew of new features including APK installs, picture password, new call screen, contact profiles and much, much more. Users that have stayed away from leaks in the past are firing up autoloaders to get in on...
