I want my Blackberry back badly, and this project is giving me hope.

The case it a bit too big, there are still battery issues, and of course a 5G card + microphone + loudspeaker need to be added.

But perhaps the day will come that I can roll that wheel to view my emails again, use that excellent small keyboard to reply without having to touch glass.

With some customization, Fairberry can fit a Blackberry keyboard on mobile phones with a USB port, https://liliputing.com/fairberry-lets-you-attach-a-blackberr...
I’m right there with you. The side scroll wheel on my 7520 was perfection. I could operate it from my pocket completely blindly.

Punkt showed off a device that had me hopeful for awhile but it doesn’t look like they are releasing it.
