BlackBerry is showing off both the BlackBerry 10 Dev Alpha C and the red Limited Edition BlackBerry Z10 device at BlackBerry Jam Europe. Sadly we do not have anyone at the event but both CrackBerry and N4BB managed to score some great shots and video of both devices. Check out the videos below:

The dev alpha is very ugly, but we don’t care, as long as it works.
Haven’t had time to test Sencha apps on it yet…
I wished they had picked silver for the limited edition, but nobody is going to complain about getting a free phone from BlackBerry

The DAC is running 10.1 which is a good thing if that means that it’s a new revision of the OS that will launch in April.
It’s crazy fast
Some bezel gestures are a bit awkward to perform due to the lack of space between the screen and the keyboard.
No keyboard shortcuts worked… language switching wasn’t available- I hope it’s a limitation of the dev alpha and not the final OS.

Yeah I also has trouble with the bezel gestures. Had to start lower than expected.
I can confirm keyboard shortcuts worked on the q10 devices they showed me.
