February 2, 2012 by Robb Dunewood Leave a Comment

We first saw a mock-up of the BlackBerry London, Research in Motion’s first smartphone to run the next-generation BBX based operating system.  This image obtained by CrackBerry.com, however, is the first image of the London complete with BlackBerry10 branding at it looks a lot closer to being production ready

December 7, 2011 by Robb Dunewood Leave a Comment

Back in October at BlackBerry DevCon 2011, Research in Motion announced that they were going to brand their new QNX based next-generation operating system with the name BBX.  Unfortunately, however, RIM didn’t check to see that BBx was already trademarked.

BlackBerry London… Is this the first sighting of BBX running on a BlackBerry?

November 14, 2011 by Robb Dunewood 4 Comments

The Verge was able to get their hands on a new BlackBerry device code named BlackBerry London will be one of the first BlackBerry devices running RIM’s new mobile OS, BBX.

The BlackBerry London is supposedly thinner than an iPhone 4s and is equipped with a TI OMAP dual-core CPU clocked to 1.5GHz, 1GB of RAM, 16GB of onboard storage, an 8-megapixel rear camera, and a 2-megapixel front-facing camera.

RIM has been saying that we would see the first BBX BlackBerry smartphone in February of next year, but, The Verge is stating that we won’t see the BlackBerry London until June of next year.

The first BBX BlackBerry will support BES after all…

November 10, 2011 by Robb Dunewood Leave a Comment

Soon after we heard the first rumors of the the BlackBerry Colt, the device believed to be the first BBX BlackBerry, we heard that it would not support BlackBerry Enterprise Server (BES).

If it weren’t for the fact that I have an 8 month old BlackBerry PlayBook sitting on my desk that still doesn’t have a native email client, the mere thought of a new BlackBerry that couldn’t get corporate email via BES would have been unthinkable.  That current state of the BlackBerry PlayBook, however, made this rumor quite plausible.

Back in August, Research in Motion said that we would see the first BBX BlackBerry devices in Q1 early next year.  Barclays Capital analyst, Jeff Kvall, however, believes that the BlackBerry Colt, which RIM failed to show out BlackBerry Dev Con 2011, is delayed more than the company acknowledges…

Oh No! BBX will not support legacy Java BlackBerry Apps…

October 19, 2011 by Robb Dunewood 6 Comments

As I watched the BlackBerry DevCon keynote yesterday one of the things that I noticed was that the BlackBerry that we know and love today really wasn’t mentioned all that much.  Presenter after presenter talked about what they were doing in BBX and almost every demonstration was of some app or gaming engine that would run in BBX.
