Lo and behold, the very first image of the upcoming BlackBerry Milan, a new slider BlackBerry that packs a whole lotta punch. Together with the all touch BlackBerry London, BlackBerry Milan will be the second device that are on the lineup of the new generations of BlackBerry, labeled as BlackBerry 10 (formerly known as the BBX). While there isn’t an official specs yet – With the first image of BlackBerry Milan above, the photo itself says a lot. It’s a slider BlackBerry, featuring the physical full qwerty keyboard that BlackBerry addicts know and love.

BlackBerry Milan is also rumored to pack amazing displays (higher pixel density than the iPhone 4′s retina display), which will really add to the awesome factor. It’s interesting to note that the design on this one seems to merge together two looks: at the top are rounded corners, similar to the BlackBerry PlayBook tablet, while along the bottom we have the sharper edges simliar to the photo of BlackBerry London.

Overall BlackBerry Milan is awesomely exciting. A full, big touchscreen along with a physical keyboard on the next-generation BlackBerry 10 OS could be the ultimate phone for a lot of people out there in 2012.
