BlackBerry’s Passport Smartphone Quickly Hit 200K Preorders

BlackBerry’s new square-faced, enterprise-targeted Passport smartphone hit 200,000 preorders within two days of their debut online on Sept. 24, selling out the devices for now and giving the company some pleasant news after what has been several years of disappointments.

The 200,000 preorders were announced by John Chen, BlackBerry’s CEO, during a first-quarter 2015 earnings call with analysts on Sept. 26 and have been confirmed by BlackBerry.
