Glad to see you CBK! 🙌
I'm using an iOS device.
1. Google's inability to have a cohesive messaging app, and their lack of support for Google Workspace users got me to move to Apple. (Example: The latest Google Pay app now works with Workspace accounts, but it took them more than a whole year to roll that out.)
2. Apple's Reminders app has in-app search. Google Tasks does *not*. Isn't Google a search company?
Pixel 7 for now. Waiting to see if the Pixel 8/8 Pro is worth the upgrade, doesn't really seem like it so far. I honestly can't be bothered caring about iPhone unless they come in at a cheaper price which won't happen. For my use case, the Pixel line does everything I need it to at more than half the cost.
I'm using a Samsung Galaxy S22+ and still using the Blackberry keyboard 4.1904.2.16698 I downloaded a couple of years ago before everything went away. Sure wish there was an update to that! I love the Blackberry keyboard!
Interesting news. I miss my qwerty keyboard and it's unique features but hangin' on to my Samsung Galaxy Note 10+. To be honest, other than typing on glass which sucks(!), I really love this smartphone. Not even considering the Galaxy S or any of their Fold phones. Still using BB Hub for my emails, etc and my precious Password Keeper! It's obviously not interactive like it was on BBOS but beggars can't be choosers.
Indeed, I am still pushing buttons on my KEY2 but also carry a Pixel7. I loaded everything BlackBerry that I could on the Pixel7, as far as software goes; I have a subscription to the Hub etc. But it is incredibly frustrating to type on glass. I make so many typos that I have to go back and correct again and again. Therefore I do most of my typing on my KEY2.
It is cool to hear what the Punkt company is doing and am looking forward to more news.

Still rockin' the ol Key2 until it dies or I do... :)
Went to a candybar glass screen for a while and missed the PKB, "downgraded' back to the Key2 and holding out until there is (hopefully) a worthwhile successor...
I'm using the Unihertz TS after filing for a painful divorce with my Key One. Do I hate the new phone? No, not at all. Do I love it? Yeaaaahhhh...no. It's not a BB, but dear lord, at least I have something that feels reminiscent of the phones I loved. Truth is, in some ways, the Unihertz is an improvement.
Great to see more crackberry content anything I can get my hands on I'll take it! Good to see you alive and kicking CBK!
I'm team Pixel! Rocking the 6A currently nice little budget device does all I needed to do but those foldables are looking mighty attractive.

Welcome back Kevin.
Could we have more information about Crackberry future?
What about that phone?
When is it coming?
Could we buy it in the US?
Why did they start with a touch screen device while the majority of interested people are BlackBerry fans who love a physical keyboard device!

First….wait did I do this right? 🤦♂️
Still battling it out on an OG Titan.
Shitty camera. Shitty Keyboard, but its waterproof and the battery life is insane.
Crackberry Kevin, great to see something from you again.
I can't wait to get my hands on that prize.
By-the-way, I am using a Samsung S22 these days, designed and made in South Korea, and using the Andoid operating system.
An alarming announcement for a Punky phone! Using a Nothing Phone 2 with the BlackBerry keyboard! A glimmer of hope to get a Punct Phone!

I'm currently using a Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra, which I love. I'll probably switch to the S24 Ultra when it is released, since I love the S Pen.
