    The excitement just keeps on coming! Following today's BlackBerry World keynote session, we were invited to an exclusive hands-on session with the BlackBerry10 Alpha Device!

    As many of you may already know, this device is basically a mini-PlayBook. The overall UI is a stripped down version of the PlayBook OS (Alpha Device is running 10.0.4.197). Most of the BB10 features demonstrated in today's keynote are lacking in the developer device, as this device is mainly meant for developer to test their BB10 apps.

    OS: BlackBerry 10 Developer Preview V 10.0.4.197
    Display: 4.2-inch 1280x768 HD LCD (356dpi) touch screen
    Storage: 16GB Internal
    Network: Quad Band HSPA+, No LTE support enabled. microSIM
    Connectivity: Bluetooth, NFC
    Cameras: Front Facing with no flash. Rear Camera with Flash
    Ports: 3.5MM Headphone Jack, microHDMI, microUSB
