Jerry sent this in and I must say it made me laugh a bit. Everyone's favorite gameshow The Price Is Right featured none other than the Verizon Guy sporting a BlackBerry Tour during the Showcase Showdown.

BlackBerry Kids Say the Darndest Things

Posted by Kevin Michaluk on 6 Oct 2009 10:11 am
The smartphone space is a fierce battleground these days, so companies have to do what they can do make sure they're hitting as many segments of the market as possible. It's not surprising then to see that Resarch in Motion is now targeting the ten years and younger demographic. Like seriously, I would have loved to have owned a BlackBerry when I was seven. I sooo could have cheated on...

BlackBerry 6710 Gets Thrown to the Ground on SNL

Posted by Kevin Michaluk on 4 Oct 2009 11:30 am
To be honest, it's a little tough to distinguish the BlackBerry 6710 from the 6750 or the 7730, 7750 or 7780 for that matter (check out past RIM devices here), but regardless of which device model it is, one unit met its untimely demise in last night's SNL Digital Short when Andy Samberg tossed it to the ground. Check out the video above.... it's good for a laugh. The BlackBerry action...

This One is for you Jim Balsillie... You'll Get Your Team Yet!

Posted by Kevin Michaluk on 4 Oct 2009 10:18 am
I'll never stop being amazed by the things people send in to us on the CrackBerry Tips line...  Ever wonder what happens when a hockey loving, BlackBerry-using family gets together on a Saturday evening to celebrate a birthday? Apparently after the cake is eaten they gather around the pool table to leave Research in Motion's co-CEO Jim Balsillie a little motivational message. Don't...

Dear CrackBerry: Should I Buy a BlackBerry Storm Now or Wait For Storm Two?

Posted by Kevin Michaluk on 15 Sep 2009 12:16 pm
It's a tricky question to answer. Get a BlackBerry Storm 9530 today, or wait a little longer and get a Storm 9550? Temptation is a difficult thing. All I can say is watch the video below... and hopefully you'll figure out what's best for you! :-)

The iPhone Ad You'll Never See

Posted by Adam Zeis on 26 Aug 2009 1:11 pm
If you're like me, you probably get tired of seeing endless iPhone ads on TV and hearing "There's an app for that". Well CrackBerry member kelsch1 sent in this video of The iPhone Ad You'll Never See. This one gave me a great laugh for a slow Wednesday morning, so I figured it was best to share it with all the other CrackBerry lovers. It does have a bit of explicit language, so hide the...

AT&T Advertisement Shows BlackBerry OS on Nokia E71x

Posted by Adam Zeis on 31 Jul 2009 10:39 am
Here's a fun Friday story thats good for a chuckle. CrackBerry member Jacob K. was in his local AT&T store last week and saw this ad on the wall for the Nokia E71x. Notice anything odd? If you look closely you can see the banner is clearly that of the BlackBerry OS. Reminds me of this ad that RadioShack ran last year featuring a BlackBerry Curve running Windows Mobile. Thanks to Jacob for...

(this is not a) First Live Photo of the BlackBerry Magnum!

Posted by Kevin Michaluk on 9 Jul 2009 9:53 am
In the past couple of weeks RIM has been taking a bit of a beating in the online techsphere for their BlackBerry firmware, which is arguably becoming a little dated in terms of looks and mechanics when compared to some of the newest operating system entrants in the consumer smartphone market (ie. Apple, Palm WebOS, Android). It seems Research in Motion is really taking the criticism to...
