"Blackberry Thumb"
 

I was surprised to see no threads regarding the USA Today article today.

http://www.usatoday.com/tech/news/20...ry-thumb_x.htm

Where they speak of thumb pain from using Blackberrys, but what surprised me is the picture they used is a Treo!

I realize the "thumb pain" may be the same between devices, but at least they should get the picture to match the article. Dumb on their part. But hey, maybe it's better this way for the Blackberry camp! :smile:

Your thoughts?

i type a 1000 plus messages a day on my blackberry and not had a pain yet in my finger and had my blackberry's for a year and 1/2 now. only pain i feel is when i fall down at skate practice lol. they weren't talking specifaclly about black berries though the terminology does state black berry but the store was over all cell devices with qwerty based keyboards.

this was posted including this one 5 times today lol

I think that there over use of anything will cause damage. It makes sense, just not technology.

I remember the days when I had Nintendo thumbs. That training has prevented any injuries thus far. I saw the article and had a good laugh.
