Are you an engineer, student, entrepreneur, executive, gourmet chef, baqua sifu, classical indian dance teacher? Well, this year, The publication Laptop in the August issue awarded the Blackberry RIM Device to be the Editor's choice as the best instant messaging phone. Look at the Gorgeous Instant messaging diva or champ below!
You can't wait to get your hands on the blackberry midnight Blue Phone
What is your preference? A blackberry Phone or A Blackberry home made pie?
More and more people that can not live without wi fi access, 24 hours instant messaging, broadcasting their location via GPS locator devices would tell you that they love the blackberry phone. 3
I am sure when Beverly wrote that article that the blackberry phone is not anything like a blackberry pie, I am sure the people that she will have live with her in a land where no cell phones, cars, food that is shipped in 3000 miles away would love to smash each other's cell phone. I am not promoting violence. But I am sure you have had a moment where you would love to smash your partner's cell phone because it just does not seem to stop ringing.
I am sure if you visit the organic and hippy community of your city that they would agree with having brown out days where you can not hear a cell phone ring. I work out every sunday with a teacher and there are usually a handfull of students. For sure the cell phone will ring during class. In the past I had visions of smashing their cell phone but lately since I have been seeing my bodynamics therapist now on a weekly basis, the instinct of killing the person is fadding. I am so grateful to own a helio ocean phone, but I don't use it like most people, I just use it to stay up to date with interesting blogs and feeds I subscribe to.
I hope one day I will reach cell phone nirvana where I will not get upset and stay in a state of joy every time someone's phone will ring. But that day may not come, I may want Beverly to tell me where this no cell phone land is so I can buy some land there and grow organic food.
Helio is a name of a person above and he is having a judo match with a brazilan, back in those days they did not have to worry about a cell phone ringing while they are fighting against each other
Be Grateful To Be Alive
Don't be so obsessed about taking every call that comes in. Live in the moment and be in your true nature Be happy, Don't worry be happy for others success! Keep chanting that all day and night, you never know you may be able to manifest your true desires!!!!
Blackberries belong in pie. They aren't meant to be plugged into anything but a pie shell, jam jar or muffin. They are not supposed to be communication devices, unless the communication is between children (nothing like the guilty satisfaction of inflicting a blackberry stain on your little friend's new white T shirt) or loved ones (who else gets a jar of jam paid for with a pound of flesh?)
Whose idea was it to take the blackberry-its exquisite plumpness, juice warm from the late-summer sun and make it the namesake of the newest annoying techno-thing? I do not know all the details on what a capital "B" blackberry is (and I intend to keep it that way) but I do know this: we really don't need another gadget to make us feel more stressed and in-demand when it's on and guilty and frightening out-of-the-loop when it's off. Why don't we just call this thing what it is: another toy to increase pressure and feed the sense of being time-crunched.
It's hard enough to survive the destructive aspects of technology without having to avoid yet another small computerized thingy, which, in this case, will undoubtedly become progressively smaller until it really does resemble its namesake, (blackberry fruit) at least in size. The way I see it, being as unplugged as possible is an essential part of staying sane. After all, how many blinking,beeping,ringing,flashing, things can a person have ruling their day before the inclination to run away screaming kicks in? Destination, a remote bit of land with no computer access. And while we're at it: no pollution, no cars, no reliance on fbod that has to be trucked in, and no products that have been produced with the sweat of children or badly treated workers.
