An early Blackberry device

When talking smartphones most of the chatter at the moment is around either iPhone, Windows or Android devices, but just 10 years ago Blackberry was the name many associated with the term smartphone and it was largely taken up by business users for it’s mobile email capabilities.

BlackBerry never really went away, it’s more a case of the competition moving in, however the recent launch of the new Blackberry 10 operating system will see two new Blackberry devices hit the market.

The Blackberry Z10 smartphone will be an all touchscreen device while the Q10 model will feature both a touchscreen and hardware keyboard.

Both Optus and Telstra have indicated they will be selling the new Blackberry 10 devices.
