Fake of the week: Knockoff BlackBerry Style is not so stylish

Posted by Adam Zeis on 3 Jan 2011 10:32 am
  Remeber the BleckBarry? I thought that was a real low as far as BlackBerry knockoffs go, but this latest spotted on eBay takes it one step further. The "Quad band touch screen Wifi cell phone TV Mobile 9670" is a dead ringer for a red BlackBerry Style. If you didn't inspect things too close (or look for any logos) you wouldn't really know the difference, but this fake is far from the real...

My BlackBerry is NOT Working - Some British BlackBerry Humor...

Posted by Kevin Michaluk on 22 Dec 2010 9:48 am
[ youtube video link for mobile viewing ] The BBC posted this video preview of The One Ronnie show to their youtube account earlier this week. It's definitely a good little piece of British BlackBerry humor (note for the North Americans in the crowd, that "Orange" is a cellular carrier!). Check it out for a Wednesday morning laugh. I spotted this one on Isaac Kendall's facebook stream,...

A look back at things we were told the BlackBerry "will never have"

Posted by IsaacKendall on 10 Dec 2010 8:56 am
I have fond memories of all the BlackBerry devices I've used over the years.  Back in the summer of 1998 my first RIM device was called the 'interactive messenger' -- it was similar to the BlackBerry device but had a couple of interesting features that were quite popular; "text-to-voice" and "text-to-fax" allowing you to compose a message and have it delivered by fax or by Stephen Hawking via...

Verizon confuses their Curves - Mistakes 8330 for Curve 3G

Posted by Adam Zeis on 30 Nov 2010 10:10 am
It looks like Verizon is having a bit of trouble keeping their devices straight in their holiday ads. Not only did they show an iPhone screen on a Droid X, but they seem a bit confused on which Curve is which. As seen in this banner from Big Red's front page, they list the Curve 3G as part of their weekend sale yet the image shows the old standby Curve 8330. Not sure who is to blame on this...

Funny: Windows/Mac Commercials go BlackBerry/iPhone parody thanks to Riz

Posted by Adam Zeis on 16 Nov 2010 1:28 pm
[ youtube video link for mobile viewing ] It looks like Riz, the artist behind Ping Me Baby, is back at it with these funny iPhone vs. BlackBerry parodies. The two videos seen here poke some fun at iPhone on both the application and hardware fronts. Stuff like this always makes me chuckle a bit. Word is there are more on the way too so be on the lookout. Got to love Riz for sticking to...

Weekend Humor: How Smartphone Users See Each Other

Posted by Kevin Michaluk on 6 Nov 2010 10:42 am
This one has been popping up around the net the past couple of days but I figured we'd save it for the weekend... If a picture is worth a thousand words, then this comic strip from C-Section Comics is more like a 20,000 word thesis on the smartphone consumer market. It's funny, cuz well... it's mainly true :)

Fake of the week: The BleckBarry!

Posted by Adam Zeis on 17 Sep 2010 11:06 am
  It looks like a BlackBerry, it sounds like a BlackBerry, but is it a BlackBerry? No way. It's a BleckBarry. This fancy "smartphone" has some amazing features (if you're living in 1990) that anyone would love to have. this dual-network phone has not one, but two SIM slots, a 2 inch "vibrant color" screen, Bluetooth and 506KB of internal memory. And as if that all wasn't enough, there is a...

Moby Dick as told by a BlackBerry Torch user

Posted by Adam Zeis on 14 Sep 2010 11:47 am
[ youtube video link for mobile viewing ] In the past RIM has never really cranked out "consumer" commercials for their devices. iPhone and Android really had them beat in that department. With the release of the BlackBerry Torch on AT&T we've seen some great spots that really show off the device as well as the operating system. The latest commercial creatively tells the story of...
