BlackBerry Tour Gets a Guest Spot on 'House'

Posted by Adam Zeis on 9 Feb 2010 11:53 am
While watching House M.D. last night as part of my lazy Monday night, I was excited to see our good friend the BlackBerry Tour 9630 had a guest spot for most of the show. Right from the start, Lisa Edelstien's character showed she is a true CrackBerry Abuser as her precious Tour rarely left her sight (or her hand for that matter) for most of the show). As her alarm clock rang at 5am (which she...

Celebrity BlackBerry Sighting: Homer Simpson Rockin' A BlackBerry 7230

Posted by Kevin Michaluk on 16 Nov 2009 9:33 am
Ok, so maybe it's not really a celebrity BlackBerry sighting in the traditional sense, but it is a sure sign that BlackBerry Smartphones have gone mainstream, now even reaching that little 'ole famous town called Springfield. Last night on the Simpsons, Homer was spotted using a BlackBerry 7230 (or is that a 7290?!) after having been given a new position at work. I guess enterprises in cartoon...

Posted by Bla1ze on 23 Oct 2009 6:41 pm
While most of us are still waiting to get our hands on a BlackBerry Bold 9700. In Cologne, Germany Tara Reid was among the celebs who have been able to get devices early. While looking around the internet the buzz seems to be questioning as to why Tara Reid of all people was chosen to take part in the BlackBerry Bold 9700 launch. But really, come on folks Tara Reid is a little cuter then Will....

Lois Lane Uses a BlackBerry Storm?

Posted by Adam Zeis on 20 Aug 2009 11:18 am
Yes you read the title correctly. It looks like well known reporter Lois Lane certainly does use a BlackBerry Storm. Reading through Action Comics #880, one CrackBerry member came across this image of Lois Lane's phone, and it sure does look like a Storm. While any details like "BlackBerry" or "Verizon" don't appear, any CrackBerry user knows exactly what device it is. That familiar Deeet...

Kevin Spacey - BlackBerry Bold User and Twitter Addict; Win BlackBerry Stuff with our Ongoing Twitter Contest

Posted by Kevin Michaluk on 23 Jul 2009 11:23 am
Now I'm sure David Letterman knows all about Twitter, but he played dumb on the show a couple nights back when he had Kevin Spacey on a guest. Kevin busted out his BlackBerry Bold and educated David in the ways of Twitter. It's funny clip, be sure to watch. And if you're wondering what Twitter client Keyser Söze himself is using, by his description from sending a tweet it sounds like...

Friday Fun Photo: Working on a Review of the Verizon BlackBerry Tour 9630... Any Questions?

Posted by Kevin Michaluk on 10 Jul 2009 4:10 pm
As I sit in my office working on a review for the Verizon BlackBerry Tour 9630, I just took notice of the mess of BlackBerry smartphones around me and couldn't help but think they'd like to pose for a quick photo for CrackBerry Nation. Think you can name all the devices pictured above? If so, you definitely pass the "BlackBerry Enthusiast" test -- though there are a couple of tricks to naming...

Ooops... My Bad - Google CEO Caught Using a BlackBerry!

Posted by Kevin Michaluk on 10 Jul 2009 8:43 am
D'oh! Once a BlackBerry Addict, ALWAYS a BlackBerry Addict. It seems Google's CEO Eric Schmidt was recently caught on camera at the Allen & Co Media Summit in Sun Valley using, you guessed it, a BlackBerry! Now I can't say that I blame him for using a BlackBerry... and I guess he could get away with the excuse of beta testing the new Google Connector for BES or trialing an upcoming...

Kristen Stewart's Pretty Pink BlackBerry

Posted by cate on 25 Jun 2009 7:45 am
While Kristen Stewart's character in Twilight has a Nokia 7360, the actress herself was spotted with a baby pink BlackBerry Curve 8330 on a recent outing with Joan Jett. Kristen frequents the Apple Store so it's bit of a surprise that she's not an intense iPhone user (thankfully).  Then again, her new look seems to be the biggest surprise of all. I think it's awesome - Rock the grunge and...

Tasty - BlackBerry Storm Cake

Posted by Kevin Michaluk on 22 Jun 2009 10:05 am
How do you judge the popularity of a smartphone brand? Some would say unit sales or media mentions are appropriate metrics to follow, but I'd argue it's the number of birthday cakes made in honor of said brand that is the true determining factor. And on the birthday cake front, BlackBerry is doing just fine. Following up on our BlackBerry birthday cake round-ups Part I and Part II, this...
