$3,350 Barackberry

In a move that will most certainly make my friend at VZW jealous, the taxpayers of America the NSA has issued the president a highly secured $3,350 BlackBerry which has affectionately been dubbed the "Barackberry". I never really thought about it but according to CNN, the previous presidents have been highly limited in their use of electronic communication. I'd personally fall over dead if I couldn't send out emails, text or chat it up but then again as the president, I'm sure there's plenty of fund raising dinners and cabinet meetings to keep you occupied. I'd be more worried about him losing his cool because he gave up smoking. In retrospect, this makes me wonder two things. (1) Does the president use a national phone carrier? and (2) Who does he call for tech support?
