Although they are is still six to seven  months away from being launched, Research In Motion's BlackBerry 10 devices are expected to look and feel a lot like the above  Dev Alpha Device. Currently running a modified version of the PlayBook OS, the Dev Alpha device was seeded to developers to keep them interested and give them a platform to develop on. Featuring a 4.2 inch screen, a quad band HSPA + radio (no LTE), front and rear facing cameras as well as a generous 16GB of storage, a microSIM and a sealed-in battery. This is pretty exciting hardware for 2012 but will it evolve into something competetive for 2013? That really is the question.
