 Hi, this is Jacob from The Verge and I am here with the Porsche Design Blackberry P9981. This is a collaboration, special collaboration between Rim and Porsche Design. It essentially is a Blackberry 9900 bold on the inside but it has a much different enclosure that is the result of a collaboration between Porsche and Blackberry. So the front of the device and the rim over here is actually one whole piece of stainless steel that has been forged and then there is this glass region for the 640x480 screen with glass buttons below. It doesn't have the same optical track pad that is present in most Blackberries but rather a specialized camera that is actually hidden under the glass that is used for tracking. It has this keyboard below that is also made of metal and it is not as easy to type on as the traditional Blackberry plastic keyboard but it definitely goes with the whole design theme that is going on over here. It has a laser engraved Porsche Design logo at the top and then the Blackberry logo below, a status light and that is kind of the front of the device. Along the top there is a lock switch and then on the right side a volume up, volume down and a play pause button in the middle. Then on the other side there is a headphone jack and a micro USB charging port. The back of the device is also really elegant and kind of counters balances with the metal and glass of the front. It has a full leather back along with an engraved Blackberry logo and then a 5 megapixel camera and LED flash on the other side. Again, this is pretty much a Blackberry 9900 but it definitely is not going to carry the price point of the Blackberry 9900 when it launches in North America later and soon in a couple months. It's probably going to retail for around $2000. That's just a quick look at the Blackberry P9981 by Porsche and Blackberry.
 Hi, this is Jacob from The Verge and I am here with the Porsche Design Blackberry P9981.
 This is a collaboration, special collaboration between Rim and Porsche Design.
 It essentially is a Blackberry 9900 bold on the inside but it has a much different enclosure
 that is the result of a collaboration between Porsche and Blackberry.
 So the front of the device and the rim over here is actually one whole piece of stainless
 steel that has been forged and then there is this glass region for the 640x480 screen
 with glass buttons below.
 It doesn't have the same optical track pad that is present in most Blackberries but rather
 a specialized camera that is actually hidden under the glass that is used for tracking.
 It has this keyboard below that is also made of metal and it is not as easy to type on
 as the traditional Blackberry plastic keyboard but it definitely goes with the whole design
 theme that is going on over here.
 It has a laser engraved Porsche Design logo at the top and then the Blackberry logo below,
 a status light and that is kind of the front of the device.
 Along the top there is a lock switch and then on the right side a volume up, volume down
 and a play pause button in the middle.
 Then on the other side there is a headphone jack and a micro USB charging port.
 The back of the device is also really elegant and kind of counters balances with the metal
 and glass of the front.
 It has a full leather back along with an engraved Blackberry logo and then a 5 megapixel camera
 and LED flash on the other side.
 Again, this is pretty much a Blackberry 9900 but it definitely is not going to carry the
 price point of the Blackberry 9900 when it launches in North America later and soon in
 a couple months.
 It's probably going to retail for around $2000.
