That’s it, all done.
Received my BlackBerry Wireless HandheldTM today. On account of my tremendous importance. On top of my Palm Treo 650 and two varieties of IPod (standard 40gig plus Nan0), I have officially reached gadget overload.
Which for me, is saying a lot.
First impressions of the BlackBerry? As contrasted to the Treo, it is as Windows is to Mac OSX.
In other words, I will be able to use it, but I will take no pleasure in it.
My husband can’t go anywhere without his HP Pocket PC, which is very similar to the Blackberry. He even carries it in his pajama pants “just in case I need to check my schedule”.
He’s the gadget geek to beat all geeks.
Well, depending on what happens in federal district court, you may end up taking even less pleasure in using it in the future, assuming it doesn’t get shut down completely. (Though I’m not sure what arrangement, if any, the federal government might decide to enter into.)
I had to click on the links you provided. Perhaps it would be good for me to climb out from under my frickin’ rock sometimes and understand what is going on around me. I *Did* know what an iPod was, however! I have one. I can’t remember life without it…
LOL! I saw the title and before I could read another word, my thought was, “Wow, Lex with gadget overload? That’s saying a lot!”
That’s okay – due to the whole patent brouhaha, you’ll only have to carry it for a little while longer… (I have hopes all the patents are sent down in flames).
Make sure that you get the palm one 1.1.7 update. I have one and these phones suck.
Does this mean you must trade in yourcurrent bat belt in for a fancy bat belt?
I always saw myself more in a Luke Skywalker belt, personally.
From reading the article it looks like gov accounts (like our Gracious Host’s) would remain active even if there was an injunction.
And Capt, is that a new belt coming out of TFU? I could think of a couple of my students who could benefit from the application of a light saber (well they wouldn’t benefit as much as the Navy would, but needs of the Service trump all, eh?) Perhaps our HPAC’s could be fixed by a few blaster shots. It worked in the BK commercial.
“In other words, I will be able to use it, but I will take no pleasure in it.”
Lex,
I agree with Tammi – they don’t call it “crackberry” for nothing…it’s just too easy.
Gee Lex, you’ll be able to forward emails from the “throne” after that second cup o’joe in the morning! Neat.
They remind me of these:

I could have used a set of those, back when I had access to a place to go upland bird hunting.
Hmmm. Thinking about Warner Springs, when maybe there aren’t any SERE classes in session…
re the Springs- having a little familiarity with that place set back in the that corner of my mind, I’d say it wouldn’t be a good place for it because everything that was edible-flora or fauna- has already been eaten since the ’70’s at least! 1st letter S = survival of course.
But the 2nd word is Springs and if there’s water there’s sure to be some birds..that’s the key. You’ve got to get out & walk & seek. That’s why they call it hunting. Call the state game department biologists cold call style and find out where the guzzlers are. Go there. Start here:
