There’s no doubt that excitement about BlackBerry 10 has been mounting. Those who already have a BlackBerry Z10 in their hands have given us hugely positive feedback. Well, our partners are hearing this loud and clear, and I’m happy to let you know that we recently received our largest ever single purchase order in BlackBerry’s history.

“An order for one million devices is a tremendous vote of confidence in BlackBerry 10,” said Rick Costanzo, EVP Global Sales, BlackBerry. “Consumers are ready for a new user experience, and BlackBerry 10 delivers. With strong partner support, coupled with this truly re-invented new platform, we have a powerful recipe for success.”

BlackBerry unveiled the new BlackBerry Z10 and BlackBerry Q10 smartphones on January 30th. BlackBerry Z10 is now available for purchase in a number of markets around the world and will be available in the United States starting this month.

With the BlackBerry 10 launch event coming up, you’ve been asking to see more and more of BlackBerry 10. To provide you with some more background on the BlackBerry Hub, I met up with Patrick Murtha, Director, Portfolio Product Strategy here at BlackBerry to show me around.

The BlackBerry Hub is the single place for you to manage your conversations. From BBM and email to phone calls and social networks, they’re always just a gesture away from anywhere in BlackBerry 10. It was designed to give hyper-connected people control over their conversations. Earlier this week you voted and it looks like messaging of all sorts is what you use your BlackBerry smartphone for most often. This will make the BlackBerry Hub the perfect fit in your lifestyle.

Find out from Patrick what makes the BlackBerry Hub stand out and why BlackBerry fans will appreciate the experience in our video interview below.
