Bbin:It’s been more than a month hearing Thorsten Heins, the CEO at RIM, started using a BlackBerry 10 smartphone in his daily life to ensure 100% deliverance at launch and this is his first spotting with the device in the wild! He was accompanied by RIM’s Senior Vice President, Software Product Management, Andrew Bocking who also posed with his BlackBerry 10 “London” & its beautiful BlackBerry pouch.
Facebook-owned Whatsapp will no longer work on BlackBerry OS, including BlackBerry 10 devices.
I am willing to bet the decision wouldn't have been the same had WhatsApp been a paid service or contain Ads. Anyways, this proves Facebook's ignorance towards emerging markets.
"we recommend upgrading to a newer Android, iPhone, or Windows Phone"

Nice oxymoron there xD
Bendable smartphones could be a reality in five years, Lenovo's head of mobile told CNBC.

Some people mocked the original iPhone when it launched, and the Samsung Galaxy Note provoked much mirth for being too big, but both defied their critics with strong sales and spawned sequels that are still going strong. The phones we’re looking at here had a different fate. They may have pointed the way for the future of smartphones, but they failed to capitalize on it.
Lumia 1020 was definitely the biggest shocker of all. I still remember how I thought it would do great in the markets when it was first announced.
