I’m back!!! My beautiful wife and I just got back from a weeklong vacation out in the Bahamas and had a blast. Kudos to the rest of the team for holding up the fort while I was out. I almost did not notice that I was without my BlackBerry for a WEEK! Cell service is spotty out on the islands and AT&T roaming costs a fortune so I left my BlackBerry in the hotel safe and vacationed circa 1990s style. The closest I got to a BlackBerry was a BTC shop selling the BlackBerry Bold for $755!
For the last 9+ years I cannot remember a time where I was a week without my BlackBerry or at least a cell phone. Nothing crazy happened while I was going through withdrawal but I was constantly checking my belt loop for my missing appendage… Though I did get a kiss from a dolphin. 🙂
So I decided to pose the question to all of you. Tell us your best story about BlackBerry withdrawal and by Sunday May 24th, 2009 at 11:59 PM EST. The top story, chosen by our top notch team, will win their choice of a $25 Amazon gift certificate or $25 PayPal payment.
