Stroking his bald cat, sitting in a swiveling chair, Steve Jobs smiled. He had finally iced out the competition.
The only thing that killed the competition was thinking they had to try and do thing's differently without staying true to their core values just beause someone else did it.
If Blackberry took more time and did more research, they'd have made an iphone killer.
Instead, they came up with crap.
Always suspected iEye was flashy's alter-ego
Still more functionality than the Palm Pre!
Sprint's way of making your phone more user friendly. (Of course it doesn't make sense)

I asked the salesman for a phone that was cooler than an iPhone. This is what he sold me, but the first time I tried it, the screen froze.

Palm's Touchstone has nothing on the new BlackBerry charging system. Granted it does take a bit longer to get our phone out of the charger.
But RIM said that blackberries wouldnt freeze, what gives?!
If BlackBerrys were wooly mammoths... we'd all be ringing into a cool age.
EXCELLENT! Now all we have to do is ship it to Russia, bury it, wait a few thousand years and before you know it, best practical joke ever, someone will try to EAT a blackberry! Take *THAT* 91st century!
in mother russia, blackberry eats you!
The rest of the guys in the department thought Davids solution to Blackberry users bringing their phones back for repair after accidentally pressing the power button was a bit excessive.
I've been trying to reach my ice sculpture artist for days!
Now that we've frozen it, you suppose scientists are going to clone it?
Vanilla Ice reference commences in 5...4...3...2...1...
......0.....-1......-2......-3......-4.....FAIL.

Who failed now, Mr. Clever-guy? I didn't really expect a Vanilla Ice joke, I just couldn't think of a good one and so I figured that was the next best thing. Have a great day!
Thats how we make em sooo thin!
Cold yes... Cool;Not really... but suitably chilled.
I've always longed for a name like "Brian W.T.F."
Overclocking experiment gone wrong.
Take Off, Eh!
Honey can you please pass my phone I think I left it by the frige.
Blackberry Roulette! C'MON 00!!!
It's going to be +8 tomorrow, I'm heading over and picking up a free device as it melts out of the ice :D
Meet the replacement for the bold, the Blackberry COLD!
Haha, the funniest part about these kind of jokes is how bad you guys are at jokes. I love it!
Good news and bad news fellows... The good is that we reach a 5,00Ghz processor clock
