RIM has something special cooking in Dubai. The company is launching a Porsche designed BlackBerry, likely called the Knight, and it is turning heads for all kinds of reasons. The BlackBerry Knight keeps the same features as the Bold so you are not getting new specs under the hood. What you do get is a serious style upgrade. Think angled keys and the sharp design language that Porsche Design is known for. Of course all that luxury comes at a cost. The Knight is expected to carry a hefty price tag and honestly that is part of the point. This is not a phone for everyone. It is a statement piece for people who want their BlackBerry to stand out from the crowd.
Opinions are split on the design. Some people call it hideous, others see the appeal. I fall somewhere in the middle because it is bold and different and that counts for something in a sea of identical handsets. What do you think? Yay or nay?
