That was one of the big 5 in my mind. I never did any BB dev, but I remember looking into it at the time. If I couldn’t get a device for cheap or free it was inaccessible. Student life is what it is. By the time I made my webOS money they were already on the decline and considering a move to android so I didn’t consider it thereon.
Just watched the Jay Bachurel movie recently and can recommend. It’s a bit slow but the nostalgia is top grade.
I gotta say, I actually enjoyed the time programming for BlackBerry. It was the only time I actually did C++/Qt professionally. And the APIs were very inspired on the iOS/MacOS ones, so it was kinda easy for me to migrate later to iOS.
But just the same way, the guys in the university lab back then got a few BB10 devices just for sending apps to their app store.

Glen Howerton as Balsilly knocked it out of the park with that performance
