    I thought about it. This makes sense for someone wealthy enough that $35 is like 35 cents is to the rest of us, and If they're curious to see how the blackberry OS works. They can buy this, play with it for an hour, then throw it in the garbage. I guess I can see that scenario making sense.

    Blackberry always implemented the most Bluetooth functions with the most correctness. It's nice to have one around as a reference device when your other devices are misbehaving, so you can try things out with the Blackberry and know where to place the blame. Cheaper than a protocol analyzer...

    We all know the OS is garbage, but the hardware is legit. I use at as a web surfing device and a video player.

    What a waste of perfectly good hardware. Abandoned before its time. Had it had some of the basics like Skype, Netflix, and SlingPlayer, it would've been at least worth the $35 now.

    I did too, just like you. Bought one after they said it would get 10. Then I kept it in the box and left it on the shelf. What a sham.

    You can always use it as a digital picture frame/paper weight. And in certain situations, it might be convesation starter (eg. "What is that?" "Back in the day, this company named Blackberry....").

    I'm in the same boat. Stay away from this.
