    You know the Mac vs. PC commercials???? Well, imagine one with Blackberry vs. PC! Would be funny.

    Anyway, today something amazing happened!

    I am working away programming with GMail open on my PC, when suddenly I hear my Berry cry that there's new GMail -- BEFORE IT APPEARED ON MY PC!!!

    Isn't IMAP a beautiful thing!!

    Almost like getting email before it's sent - Better than a Delorean.

    haha.... well I did sort of forget that I was making the PC earn it's keep by running a repository merge on some code branches...

    and oh yeah... I've gotten approximately 13,234,435,932 other GMail's on the pc first, so maybe my score keeping is a bit biased. =)

    There's lots of stuff better than a Delorean, like:

    1. Girls
    2. Girls
    3. Girls
    4. Girls
    5. Girls
    6. Girls
    7. Girls
    8. Girls
    9. Girls

    and oh yeah:

    10. Blackberries

    but you are right the space time continuum is going to rip any second.... mainly because my next post is 1,000!

    Yeah, actually I think we should start a tradition here on the crack...

    Basically, when you reach "Master", it is traditional for you to right an "article" or "tutorial" on something you know well about your BB, and then have them posted in like a special place to help out new people or something.

    That would be kind of cool... so I'm taking requests... but I'm thinking I might start the tradition by writting about either memory, or setting up profiles and exceptions. =)

    Congratulations, Crackberry Master Waugh. I think you should write about memory management and power, specifically the possible adverse consequences of battery pulls. I've been using your earlier post as a reference.
