Word on the street is that Jersey Shore star Snooki accidentally Tweeted her BlackBerry PIN to her 310,000 plus Twitter followers. The ensuing wave of messages rendered her BlackBerry useless.
Note to self… If you ever get 310K Twitter followers, don’t frigging accidentally Tweet your PIN out to all of them.

It seems like it is kind of of a slow day as far as BlackBerry related news goes, so, I figured that I would throw a question out there for discussion that colleague asked me this morning.
Why are so many more celebrities seen with BlackBerry devices as compared to iPhones?
As many of you long time RIMarkable readers know, we spun off a category, Celebrity BlackBerry Sightings, into it’s own site a few years back. For a site that does little more than display mostly paparazzi style photos of famous people with BlackBerrys, Celebrity BlackBerry Sightings gets a ridiculous amount of traffic.
Now, I am not saying that there aren’t a lot of celebs who use iPhones. There most certainly are. But, when compared to the number of BlackBerry toting famous folk out there, their numbers seem almost insignificant.
The comments are open to all who want to weigh in on why this is the case, or, why I am completely off base.

I don’t know if you guys remember this, but, John Mayer was one of the first people walking around with a BlackBerry Bold. He even blogged about unboxing it when he got it back in mid-May.
Well, it would appear that Mr. Mayer has moved on from the Bold and on to the BlackBerry Storm.

Research in Motion appears to be a big fan of Celebrity BlackBerry Sightings. So much so that they actually have created A PowerPoint highlighting some of the famous people that use them.
Hmm… I wonder where the got all these pictures of famous BlackBerry users?

It would appear that the launch of the BlackBerry Bold is near. More and more celebrities are being spotted with what we are being told is the coolest BlackBerry device to date.
John Mayer was the first celebrity to be seen out an about with a BlackBerry Bold. Seeing how BlackBerry is sponsoring his summer concert tour we can see how he was able to get his hands on the Bold early. That latest celebrity BlackBerry Bold sighting is Kate Hudson. We’re not sure how she was able to get one early, however, being rich and famous probably has a bit to do with it.

A few RIMarkable readers have asked why we haven’t posted any recent pictures of celebrities with BlackBerrys lately. Well, that would be because we’ve created an entire site dedicated to celebrities with BlackBerrys, appropriately named Celebrity BlackBerry Sightings.
It still amazes me that some of the most popular posts here are RIMarkable a pictures of famous folks using their BlackBerrys. When I say popular, we are talking about hundreds of thousands of page views over the years.
Needless to say Celebrity BlackBerry Sightings is still going strong, so, if you would like to see pictures of the the famous and the infamous that use our beloved BlackBerry, head on over and have a look.
