Even those on the Apple Board of Directors understand that BlackBerry people do

Posted by Adam Zeis on 28 May 2012 11:29 am
Since I watched the new round of BlackBerry ads I'm all about saying "BlackBerry People Do". Anytime anyone has questioned my BlackBerry use, my response has always been "it helps me get s@#t done". It's totally true and is still the best communication tool on the planet. Perhaps that's the reason that J. Crew CEO Millard "Mickey" Drexler chooses to use a BlackBerry Bold 9900. If you don't...

The London Olympics are only a few months away, and thousands of lucky people will be carrying torches throughout the UK. The Olympic torch wasn't the only torch in-hand however. will.i.am was also clutching his trusty BlackBerry Torch and managed to crank out a few Tweets along the way....

The latest video by Wisin & Yandel called Follow the Leader features Jennifer Lopez, and the opening scenes of the video show all 3 singers using Twitter for...

Nicki Minaj tweets from her BlackBerry after performing at the Nokia event in NYC

Posted by Jared DiPane on 10 Apr 2012 12:42 pm
Seeing celebrities using BlackBerry devices is nothing new really as we have seen them hundreds of times, but this instance is rather humerous. On Saturday Nokia had a big event in NYC for the launch of the Lumia 900, during which they had Nicki Minaj perform on stage. Following her performance, she tweeted out how exhausted she was and how much fun she had during the event. Being that the...

Kanye West treats Jay-Z and Beyonce to brand new Porsche Designed BlackBerry P'9981

Posted by Jared DiPane on 3 Apr 2012 12:45 pm
It appears as though Kanye West got ahold of the fact that not only does CrackBerry Kevin have a Porsche Designed P9981, but Miss CrackBerry has one as well. In an attempt to dethrone them from being the most awesome BlackBerry-carrying couple around, Kanye went ahead and purchased a P'9981 for his good friends Jay-Z and Beyonce. While recently out in London, Kanye apparently sent his driver...

BlackBerry P'9981 spotted in Britain's Got Talent preview

Posted by Adam Zeis on 23 Mar 2012 9:08 am
[ youtube video link for mobile viewing ] The Porsche Design BlackBerry P'9981 has been fairly camera shy since it's release, but a keen eye (thanks Dave!) spotted one in this ad for Britain's Got Talent. It looks like Kevin and Beyonce aren't the only ones with this sweet device -- apparently Amanda Holden has one of her own as well (or it looks that way at least). The P'9981 is only...

How to quickly enter your lock screen information into any text field

Posted by Adam Zeis on 15 Dec 2011 10:28 am
Like most BlackBerry users I'm a big fan of Auto Text on my device (AKA Word Substitution). You can add an endless supply of quick text expansions that make typing out long or common phrases a breeze. There are quite a few that come preset on the device as well, one of which is "sig". Typing "sig" in any text field will automatically spit out whatever you have entered for your lock screen...

Did Unforgettable tease us with an AT&T Bold 9900?

Posted by Alicia Erlich on 23 Oct 2011 12:37 pm
Weekends are usually my time to catch up on chores and shows taped on my DVR. Well Saturday morning I happened to be watching this past Tuesday's Unforgettable, which airs on CBS, and wouldn't you know what popped up on my TV. I actually rewound and hit pause to make sure. Next thing I did was jump up, grab my camera, and take a shot. I do apologize if the quality is a little off. While it's...

RIM shows off the BlackBerry Torch 9850 and 9860 in new commercial

Posted by Adam Zeis on 6 Oct 2011 1:16 pm
[ youtube video link for mobile viewing ] RIM has posted up their latest commercial, this time showing off the BlackBerry Torch 9850/9860. The theme of the ad is "Break Free" and shows off some BlackBerry use to get away. This is the first ad we've seen dedicated solely to the all-touch device but most likely not the last. While it's been a bit overshadowed by the BlackBerry Bold 9990,...
