Verizon+Blackberry+Obama=SECURITY!!

Barack Obama is getting a “souped-up, high security BlackBerry for use in and around the White House and during presidential travel.” The device is a BlackBerry 8830 World Edition, with some incredible security tweaks, like allowing it to have access to the NSA.

It's good to know that even the president knows that Blackberries on the Verizon Network..ARE THE BEST!!

217k texts=$26k phone bill...I thought T mobile had unlimmited text?!!? HAHA!!

Two men in Philadelphia attempted to go for the world record in text messaging each other and got up to 217,000!!!

facebook 1.5 app review

We all know that Facebook is the new Myspace...HAHA!!

The new Facebook App 1.5 doesn't disapoint. It fully integrates with you phones contact list allowing you to easily upload your friends Facebook profile pics to your contacts...very cool!!

You do still have to go to the internet to look at a friends profile...but now you do not have to login everytime...which is very nice.

Lastly you can easily request phone numbers and also integrate those numbers into your contact list on your phone.

I highly recommend taking a look.
