*sigh* Way to miss the point of the article. The point is that he worked for a long time to keep his Blackberry, only to find out that he can't even use it beyond more than 10 people. That's pretty depressing, if you ask me.]]>Jul 29th 2010 7:12PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/29/obama-says-presidential-blackberry-ownership-is-no-fun-should/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/29/obama-says-presidential-blackberry-ownership-is-no-fun-should/

@Mike10010100 Touche. Blackberry has no allure when you can't fully use BBM.

@Mark Anderson Wanted to, but had to stick with VZW for service and needed Global Capabilities to stay in touch with work at the time I bought.

Nah, if you remember the "controversy" over the possibility of him using something that wasn't an iPod while working out back when he was campaigning, he'll either get another blackberry to maintain the quid pro quo or get the latest iPhone to appear more hip.

I can already see the 10-20 articles on gizmodo if he were to be seen even holding anything but his blackberry.
