BlackBerry stops supporting old devices

The old Blackberry device sitting on your desk is now nothing more than a paperweight.

The company will stop supporting its classic devices running Blackberry 10 or earlier software.

This means all of its older devices not running on Android software will no longer be able to use data, send text messages, access the web or make calls – even to 911.

Blackberry launched the last version of its operating system in 2013.
