Blackberry to Shutdown !

RIM may be ordered to shutdown its Crackberry e-mail service. That's not a typo, I said "CRACKBERRY". I spend alot of time in the Airport and I see you crackberry addicts. You walk around aimlessly with that thing held out in front of you oblivious to anything. The worst is when you walk around looking for a signal with that thing out in front of you as if you were checking radiation levels in the area to report back to the EPA. Even worst is when you Crackberry Addicts suddenly stop when you do get a signal even if you plant yourself in the worst possible location ( In front of an on coming train. Well maybe not in the Airport). When that happens others of your kind see your good fortune and gather to join you but you never acknowledge each others presence, not unlike the Afican wildlife at the local watering hole. I'm not mad at you I enjoy it. The truth is I'm concerned for you mental health. If RIM is forced to shutdown its Crackberry e-mail service I could only imagine millions of you aimlessly roaming the streets and scouring the countryside with that thing in front of you like a techno Zombie. If it happens I'm going to walk around and pretend that I'm getting service and watch the addicts come running. Cruel? Maybe, but it would sure be funny. Well I hope the shutdown never happens.
