Saw this today:

http://www.us-cert.gov/current/index...t_wince_trojan

and it made me think of the recent virus thread, the comments in various posts about the inferiority of the blackberry . . .

Yeah, I wish I could use my blackberry as a TV remote, not.

I'm very pleased with the very limited blackbery.

Watch TV on my blackberry, now that would be a whole 'nother thing entirely. I would love to be sitting in an airport watching fox news (if I had to be in an airport).

I find my blackberry is useful in attracting the opposite sex. In a bar I will pretend it is some kind of "space age" communication device. They are dumbfounded when I pretend to make a phone call "without wires." Try it and let me know THEN how "inferior" the BB is.
