Was checking out Time's photo essay of behind the scenes of the First 100 Days of the Obama Presidency and came upon this one. Appears to be quite a few Berries in that basket!


Silence is Golden
All who enter the Oval Office, Roosevelt Room and Cabinet Room are asked to leave their mobile devices in baskets like these, stationed around the West Wing.

Wonder who is responsile for taking the basket outside during fire drills / evacuations.

[sniffs]

So I see some 8830's, the olllllld 7290's, couple 8800/8820's and a Bold.

I wonder who got the Bold?

[periwinklemoon]

Somebody left theirs on (bottom center w/light on).
Wonder what happens when they're all set to vibrate?

you think the white house could afford upgrades lol

[Dukie22731]

I just hope that taxpayer dollars aren't paying for those berries....

I won't be surprise if it is.

[Iceman]

Yeah there are some old school ones in there for sure. Glad to see it's not a drawer full of iphones...

If somebody's on call 24/7, their employer -- whether government or private sector -- probably pays for the device to keep them in touch.

Remember the first scene of the first episode of West Wing, where Rob Lowe got lucky the night before and has to leave because he gets a message on his pager that says POTUS had an accident?

(A pager?!?!? Boy, a lot of things change in ten years.)

They have IPHONE vending machines over in Japan. They now have some in the US as well(in CALI).

[m4k2004]

Ha. Guess there is no way I could enter those specific rooms.....I refuse to put my berry in a basket. LOL

The Terminator franchise is what got me interested in the movies in the first place. The first was a suspenseful cyberpunk thriller, and the second became my favorite movie of all time. The third fell short of intelligence but still solid nonetheless, and the TV series was a good addition to the franchise. Nearing the end of May, the fourth and latest film addition of the beloved sci-fi franchise will open, and viewers are in for a sheer summer spectacle.

WTF? Are you talking about

[Rickbubello]

basketfull of blackberrys yet an LG 8300 squeeked in there

[ace587]

[Artemis68]

Wow, I only see one dumbphone in there...good to see that there are plenty of Berries. ^^ I don't even see an iPhone!
