That commercial really works somehow.]]>Jun 4th 2009 12:32PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/04/verizon-gets-official-with-3g-blackberry-pearl-flip-8230-129-9/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/04/verizon-gets-official-with-3g-blackberry-pearl-flip-8230-129-9/The Guy accidentally calls the girl (Pocket dialed)
Girl picks up her blackberry and shows off that his "Butt dialed" her and he should get one the new BB Flip
She then proceeds to close her BB (which should then hang up the "Butt Dialed" call)
She then continues talking and he bounces in his sit claiming his butt just hung up on her...

Yes I have seen this commercial too many times.]]>Jun 4th 2009 12:55PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/04/verizon-gets-official-with-3g-blackberry-pearl-flip-8230-129-9/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/04/verizon-gets-official-with-3g-blackberry-pearl-flip-8230-129-9/Jun 4th 2009 1:16PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/04/verizon-gets-official-with-3g-blackberry-pearl-flip-8230-129-9/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/04/verizon-gets-official-with-3g-blackberry-pearl-flip-8230-129-9/Jun 4th 2009 3:32PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/04/verizon-gets-official-with-3g-blackberry-pearl-flip-8230-129-9/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/04/verizon-gets-official-with-3g-blackberry-pearl-flip-8230-129-9/Jun 4th 2009 11:51AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/04/verizon-gets-official-with-3g-blackberry-pearl-flip-8230-129-9/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/04/verizon-gets-official-with-3g-blackberry-pearl-flip-8230-129-9/Jun 4th 2009 12:00PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/04/verizon-gets-official-with-3g-blackberry-pearl-flip-8230-129-9/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/04/verizon-gets-official-with-3g-blackberry-pearl-flip-8230-129-9/Jun 12th 2009 12:39AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/04/verizon-gets-official-with-3g-blackberry-pearl-flip-8230-129-9/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/04/verizon-gets-official-with-3g-blackberry-pearl-flip-8230-129-9/Jun 4th 2009 12:03PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/04/verizon-gets-official-with-3g-blackberry-pearl-flip-8230-129-9/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/04/verizon-gets-official-with-3g-blackberry-pearl-flip-8230-129-9/Jun 4th 2009 1:08PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/04/verizon-gets-official-with-3g-blackberry-pearl-flip-8230-129-9/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/04/verizon-gets-official-with-3g-blackberry-pearl-flip-8230-129-9/Jun 4th 2009 12:01PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/04/verizon-gets-official-with-3g-blackberry-pearl-flip-8230-129-9/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/04/verizon-gets-official-with-3g-blackberry-pearl-flip-8230-129-9/
when live chatting with verizon reps I've gotten the following answers
"that is a tmobile phone & won't work on our network", Michael
"all our broadband phones are the same speed", Shannon

I'm done trying to ask them :)

Still curious why people care what a phone looks like. Functionality for your needs is all that matters, imho. Then again I feel the same way about car purchases - get the car you enjoy driving as the exterior is worthless. Looks on tools = something for poseurs to worry about.]]>Jun 5th 2009 8:58AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/04/verizon-gets-official-with-3g-blackberry-pearl-flip-8230-129-9/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/04/verizon-gets-official-with-3g-blackberry-pearl-flip-8230-129-9/Jun 7th 2009 9:09PM
