What is the strangest place that you have used your BlackBerry

by Robb Dunewood on July 29, 2005

There is an interesting thread started by Pinstack.com forum member jscully about the strangest place that you have ‘Berried’.  There is a wide range strange places but some of the stand-outs are ‘in the back of a police cruiser’, ‘at a funeral’, and ‘in the shower’.

I think that the strangest place that I have used my BlackBerry was under a car while changing the oil. 

What is the strangest place that you have ‘Berried’?

I actually tried to use my BlackBerry in the restroom of an airplane while in a holding pattern above Detroit waiting for fog to clear. I know that you are not supposed to but I was going to be late for a job interview. The signal was too weak to send my message, but I did manage to recieve a message telling me that my interview was going to be pushed back 45 minutes. Fortunately I made and got the job.

I frequently use my BB 7290 in the bathroom and have used it in church (I know, not good).
Of course, it helps that there are now a few Bible programs available for the Berry.

In synagogue during a long winded sermon by a Rabbi I was keeping up to date with the Cubs game. I hid the blackberry under the talit. When it was time for the ashrai, I was on Yahoo Messenger WAP edition talking with my boss about a problem at work. For the berchatamizon, I was IM’ing my wife that we needed to pay our electric bill. She was sitting right next to me on her t-mobile sidekick.
