Hello Guys!
I am about to receive my free passport today. I can imagine the reactions of the people who will see me using passport.
Edit: I received it on 14th of November.
It will be interesting to know the reactions you got on your passport.
So go ahead and Share here, how have people reacted to your new BlackBerry Passport?
I will also share after getting my passport.
Cheers.

People stare at my phone while going in the tube. and so far in meetings and events, everyone asks
"Oh is that the new BlackBerry, can I check it?"
me : "Of course"
them: "Wow its big, how do you like it?"
Me: "Its the best phone today"

1. Comedy Situation: At the time of clearance from the post office, the custom officer was firstly shocked to see passport. Even more shocked when I told I won it for free. He was not able to hold the device properly. He was continuously staring at the device.
2. Tense Situation: My brother and I had dispute over who will take it. Ended at point when he said ok take it.
3. Proud Situation: When I went to a local BlackBerry outlet to buy some accessories, probably each and every customer were staring at my passport. One asked me the name and asked for let him try. I was like no, but gave it for few seconds. And seriously never before got so much good importance from the shop guys before. Inspite of crowd at the store, I was attended by 2 shop guys.
I think, this is just the starting. Many more interesting situations are waiting for me in the future.
Hi Varun,
I glad to hear you received your Passport. I have been tracking it ever since I shipped it. Your mailing address is rather "unique". I hope you enjoy it's everything you expected it to be.
Robert.

My wife is the only one who has said she wouldn't be interested in it...mostly because it's too wide.
