Remember the BlackBerry Magnum? That half touchscreen, half physical keyboard handset that supposedly got nixed in lieu of something better? Good news!

Well, sort of good news. Neither this handset or its potential replacement have gotten any more official, nor do we have any idea where this project has gone, but the guys at CellularGuru who released those stills a few weeks back have followed up with video. The only catch? The device doesn’t actually.. you know, work. You don’t get much out of seeing it in motion that you wouldn’t get out of seeing it in stills – but isn’t it just nice to look at?
