Celebrity Sighting: The GEICO Gecko is a BlackBerry User

Posted by Adam Zeis on 13 Sep 2010 10:36 am
[ youtube video link for mobile viewing ] It looks like some "business professionals" are using the Curve 85xx series as seen here in the latest GEICO commercial. It turns out the GEICO Gecko is a BlackBerry user and is sporting a black Curve 8530 or 8520. The commercial is poking fun as it jokes about where the gecko actually carrys his device. Maybe he needs a better case from...

Posted by Adam Zeis on 23 Jul 2010 3:06 pm
[ youtube video link for mobile viewing ]To call it a unique app would be a lie, but to call it a bushel of awesome is the total truth. If you plan on rocking out this summer, you'll need to have the Molson Canadian Seize the Summer app along for the ride. While it's pretty much the closest thing to foursquare since foursquare, this app wants you to share your love of summer and earn badges...

Jersey Shore's Snooki makes another bad decision and accidentally posts her PIN on Twitter

Posted by Adam Zeis on 20 Jul 2010 10:01 am
This week Snooki of 'Jersey Shore' fame made yet another bad decision as she posted her PIN on Twitter. Word on the street is that it was an accident, but her BlackBerry apparently "blew up" as loads of her 310,000+ followers sent her BBM requests. She promptly ditched her old BlackBerry and grabbed a new device (maybe she upgrades from the Tour to the Bold?) but I'd love to know just how many...

Is Tynisha Keli jealous of a BlackBerry?

Posted by Ryan Blundell on 27 Jun 2010 12:26 pm
There's no official video for this song, so just close your eyes and listen As BlackBerry users we’re more than often told that we spend too much time on our devices. Granted, there are some out there that do take it to the extreme, but I think that the majority of us give it the attention that it deserves. We’re not neglecting anyone, just making sure that everything that is important to us...

BlackBerry Takes on Lawnmower But Doesn't Live to Tell The Gruesome Tale

Posted by Adam Zeis on 25 May 2010 4:13 pm
This one comes to us from blackberryboyz, and the photo pretty much speaks for itself. Apparently a lawn tech in Florida had a little mishap with his device. It fell from his belt and landed in the path of a moving lawnmower ... and that was that. I cringe just thinking about the crrrruuunnnccch sound it made as this poor BlackBerry was chopped to bits. Some of these stories end well with the...

BlackBerry Addiction Shows Its Ugly Face On Episode of "The Marriage Ref"

Posted by Adam Zeis on 14 May 2010 10:25 am
Part of me didn't want to post this one, but I'm sure this is what some of us actually go through (on one side or another). BlackBerry addiction is a harsh reality, and while I know some aren't nearly as bad as others, we've all been called "addicts" at some point. Personally I don't see the problem with checking your BlackBerry while you're out to dinner, in bed or even mid conversation,...

BlackBerry OS Running on LG Rumor2 During NCIS

Posted by Adam Zeis on 15 Apr 2010 8:59 am
Its not often we actually see the BlackBerry OS running on devices on TV or movies, but when we do, they are usually on a BlackBerry. Rob sent in this shot from this weeks episode of NCIS. It appears as if (for some odd reason) the LG Rumor2 used in the show is indeed running the BlackBerry OS. Why exactly we're not too sure, but it is quite amusing. I know I always find myself looking at...

RIM Starting to Play Keno With BlackBerry Device Model Numbers - Intentional Misdirection or ???

Posted by Bla1ze on 15 Apr 2010 8:22 am
Looking back at BlackBerry history, for the longest time Research In Motion's "numerical naming" for devices maintained a standard convention. It was not too long ago now that devices were given certain device model designations and they actually meant something to those of us BlackBerry owners that cared to pay attention (especially us hardcore enthusiasts that frequent a site like CrackBerry...
