Blackberry+Technology

=Introduction=

Developed by Research In Motion (RIM), the Blackberry is an innovative technology in which brings communication to its users like never before. The Blackberry is a tool with the best proprietary capabilities. Communication is becoming more and more wireless. Everything that is being redesigned or innovated in one way or the other is being made to incorporate wireless technology. The Blackberry brings to its users the same functions as a laptop computer with a wireless Internet connection, a cell phone and an electronic datebook all in one. Whether owner of a small business, executive to a large multi-national corporation, or just someone who loves gadgets the Blackberry promises to satisfy any and all users. This wireless communicating device combines accessibility, practicality, and style for its users. Its large display screen and QWERTY-style keyboard make it easy in terms of funtionality and its learnability fast because it mimics the design that users are already familiar with. When checking out the Blackberry website, it classifies its users as "mobile professionals". What does that mean? Are we so connected as a society that we have become professionals at it? I guess it can be related to that saying, once you go mobile you'll never go back. I find it very hard to believe that once an individual experiences the world of wireless technology he'll go back to something like a dial-up Internet connection. Once we engage in this technologically advanced world that surrounds us we completly buy into it. We find ourselves waiting for the new version of our cell phones to come out, or that new device that will make a technology even better than we thought, for example, the Bluetooth. Is it really that different than a headset? Its the feeling of owning a "new technological device", something about it makes us feel as though we are up-to-date with the trends, or even that we are techno-savy.
