    The Prime Minister has switched from iPhone to Blackberry, good news right? Well no. In an interview Ed Miliband has revealed that he ditched his iPhone for a BlackBerry because its harder to be addicted to a device with "limited functionality."

    OUCH !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Funnily enough, some guy which I handle as a client/customer asked me today if you could still get BlackBerry's, I said "yes you can" he said "should I start looking on eBay cause they went bust didn't they?" I had nothing to say at all to that. They need a reimage, leave the BBRY brand behind and make something new. The dust has settled and the news of them going nearly bust has made everyone think they are actually bust.

    Make a new brand and start again, do it as a trial even with a partner? Samsung?

    Not that safe bud... someone managed to hack his phone and get a call through to him according to the media... while he was on a blackberry...

    Ed Miliband isn't actually the British Prime Minister - yet. He is reasonably likely to become prime minister in the elections in 5 weeks time.

    Yeah I'm pretty sure it was David Cameron that said that, he'll likely be PM this time round. Well he's got my vote anyhow. He can pump the brakes on that whole ban encryption lark. It will never happen.

    OK, so someone got a call through to him on his Blackberry. What proof do you have that the phone was hacked? It's much more likely that someone hacked a source elsewhere, got the number, and used it to call him and he happened to be wielding a Blackberry at the time.

    You should get your facts straight before posting such nonsense. Anybody can gain somebody else's number and call if need be. It's a matter of hacking something else, like the carrier for example. But claiming his BBRY got hacked? LOL

    Wasn;t me, who thought BBRY got hacked.... i said 'it got hacked' because thats what the news/tv/media bollocks said.

    That's why he lost the election. The Prime minister on the other hand claimed once that he could run the country from his BlackBerry. Maybe that's why he's still in office and Miliband is out of a job.

    Exactly, I'm Not a fan of Cameron but the message is clear. Buy a BlackBerry, be productive and become prime minister. Buy an iPhone, fretter you day away with mindless time sucking games and become labor's biggest loser in 3 decades. One can only wonder what would have happened if Milbrand had switched earlier. He might have had a chance.
