BlackBerry has now opened registration for BlackBerry 10 devices in the BlackBerry Beta Zone. They have started with the Global BlackBerry 10 Community. Here is what they had to say: “We are excited to launch the first BlackBerry 10 Community in BlackBerry Beta Zone! The goal of this community is to provide you with a space for your voice to be heard by key stakeholders within BlackBerry and by other BlackBerry 10 owners. So come on in, let us know what’s on your mind, and join the discussion!”

So, what can I take part in, you ask? Check out the program Discussion Boards and occasional Surveys, for now.  We are working to beef up this community so don’t forget to stay in touch! If you’re new to Beta Zone and would like some more details check out the ‘How Can I Provide Feedback’ tab.

Looking forward to hearing what you have to say, and working with you to improve the future of BlackBerry 10!
