Patent Blog & 3 New Phones

I find this individual's recent blog on Blackberry's Patents very interesting with informative links:

How best to monetize it? It is an often overlooked topic.

CHEN JUNE OF 2016: “Many people have wanted to buy the patents,” Chen said. “But I’m not really in a patent-selling mode, I’m in a patent licensing mode.”

3 New Phones coming instead of 2?

I don't know how reliable Venturebeat is, but they claim to have an informant. It would be very interesting.

A Chinese Company, TCL, to outsource the phones as Blackberry becomes a "Design House"? This is rumor, but this link makes a compelling case -- assuming its model numbers, which I haven't checked out, are genuine facts -- for this rumor to hold some weight.

I don't see an argument as to why they assumed it's the rumored "Hamberg." Is there any argument preventing the model number being one of the 3, such as the "Neon" in the rumored link above?
