lol. I love reading about how Obama is fighting to keep his BB.
Anyway, at the end of this article, it says he broke it while getting out of a Limo. I'd bet RIM has the prototype Bold 20G "Super Berry" already on its way to Washington, eh?
I had an 8700c that I thought died. Dropped it and it wouldn't turn back on, no matter what I tried. I could still sync the data, though, which was odd. Eventually, I took the battery out (again) and just set it aside for a couple of weeks. After my Curve arrived, I decided to try it one more time. It booted up like nothing had happened.
Anyway, all that to say, I'm almost certain it's impossible to kill the 8700c. ^_^
