On a note separate from my usual missives, if you have a Blackberry Curve, Pearl, 8800 series, or 8700 series, you really need to upgrade to Blackberry 4.5. You thought your Crackberry was great beforehand? Wait till you see what 4.5 does. Me, I primarily use my for email. One corporate account on a BES server […]

This is serious stuff folks Sorry, Mr. President. Please surrender your BlackBerry. Those are seven words President-elect Barack Obama is dreading but expecting to hear, friends and advisers say, when he takes office in 65 days.
