    This is NOT a forum for political debate, or name calling, or grandstanding. If that is what you want to do, you have plenty of options out on the web. This is a technology forum, specifically related to all things BlackBerry.

    Mmmm maybe it's not political, just simple curiosity... or simply he likes Obama and wants to buy the same phone.

    Who has never bought a product because of a fanbase?
    I bought my two very first BlackBerry devices because my favorite actress had them. And they turned me into BlackBerry love.

    There was a post deleted that was very much off topic and very political in nature. That is why I posted what I did

    He was using an older model that Lockheed Martin modified.

    Yes, most likely at this point. However he was known to have used earlier models as well.

    A post I made on the subject back in December:


    How Obama's BlackBerry got secured (Top Level Telecommunications)

    How secure is the Merkel-Phone? (Top Level Telecommunications)


    Good articles, filled with lots of technical details.

    Among other things, the article on Obama's BlackBerry seems to answer the question about why an iPhone is not usable - the security suite that was originally used for his BlackBerry 8830 is Java-based, and runs on legacy BBOS 4.5 and above.

    I'd imagine he's carrying something newer now - various reports suggest it's a 9930. (Verizon has the US government contract)

    Given the fact that it's pretty unlikely he's surfing the web, watching TV shows or playing games on it, I don't think the older tech is likely to be a big hindrance.

    From a Washington Times article on Obama's BlackBerry:

    Inside the Ring - Washington Times

    "The software that allows users access to data up to the Top-Secret classification level was developed by Genesis Key with the help of engineers from the Toronto-based Research In Motion, which makes BlackBerry.

    You're right it is not a "political forum", in case you did not notice, nobody is discussing politics.

    See my previous post.

    I do not think the POTUS or White House in general is using BB10 yet.

    Hopefully that will change this year.

    He was IN a selfie taken with a Z10, but the Z10 belonged to a Scandinavian head of state.
