However tired/cliched it may be, my new Blackberry has me obsessed.
I've only had it a few days and I'm already surprised at how much it has exceeded expectations.

Plus my new President likes his Blackberry too:

8. I bet there is a way to secure his communications
that's not very difficult. He'll get someone to figure it out.

2. I'm afraid of owning a Blackberry
I know if I get one they'd have to pry it out of my old, dead hands before I give it rest...

9. yeah, those are cool but usually on new hardware releases there are kink

5. This had concerned me.

"Given how important it is for him to get unfiltered information from as many sources as possible, I can imagine he will miss that freedom," said Linda Douglass, an adviser who was on the campaign."

I would like to see him get that unfiltered info somehow; a kitchen cabinet type of thing.

7. I think Pres. Obama will find someone who can secure his Blackberry communications.
I doubt it's all that difficult and I imagine he'll have smart Tech people work on a solution so he can continue to use it.

10. I put off getting one forever, but its applications for my job
and being able to communicate by email with clients when not in front of a computer convinced me to take the leap and get one :hi:
