BlackBerry 10 Superphone Image Leaked
The render, which has turned up on Crackberry.com, claims to be the UK flagship of the next generation of BlackBerry phones promised to be with us later in the year.

Why Don’t Smart Phones Work Any More?
It seems like not a day goes by without something going wrong with the latest kit. Everything’s in beta nowadays, whether it’s the Samsung Galaxy Nexus, Nokia Lumia 800 or the Apple iPhone. Products that somehow didn’t work used to be embarrassing anomalies that led to mass recalls. But not now. Now, phones and tablets and what-have-you are released with bits missing, or simply not working. But it’s OK, because “there’s an update coming”.
