Very very nice!
President Barack Obama…
I like the sound of that.
Now, that’s nice to see that the prez has the same passion. I would not want to give mine up either
Do you think that he will put a computer in the Oval Office?
From what I’ve read, it’s not actually a Berry that they’re letting him use; something called a Sectera Edge

Still, the fact that he’s pressed hard enough and been allowed to get a smartphone of any kind is a major win IMHO
Robb is correct. Sure looks like President Obama will keep his BB for personal use and will use a Sectera Edge for business.

It’s so nice having a real President again!

Maybe, but lots of conflicting information out there.

I guess this clears things up…doesn’t get more official than a White House press briefing

That’s not a blackberry! It’s so large and clunky and, worst of all, runs Windows Mobile!
If they wanted Obama to give up his PDA, they sure took the easiest route. Give him a phone that runs on Windows and he’ll stop using it on his own!
