Default Oregon Family Uses Dead BlackBerry to Signal Rescuers

I don't know how many of you have been following this story, but it seems that BlackBerries are even useful after the battery quits.

The reference is about halfway through the story.

Maybe BB should pick this up and run with it. They've been saying that they need some good PR selling points.

Inthinkmthis is the first time I've seen a headline that included the phrase "considered eating dog" in which that phrase was not central to the conversation.

It wasn't the Blackberry that caught the pilots attention though, but rather the man in the "tan bib overalls waving his arms"..

On Saturday, Rachor saw a movement on the edge of a deep ravine in tall timber. A man in tan bib overalls was waving his arms.
