    Paragon Software (they make professional grade backup software) is using BlackBerry's logo mirrored sideways in their advertising material :

    Subliminal Ad?

    Maybe that's the kind of subliminal marketing BBRY needs, LOL

    I just don't like the wiping one... don't wipe my Berries too often, and a total wipeout of BBRY is not desirable...

    I recommend Zipperstein no go after that one, but let the subliminal advertising do its thing....

    It looked familiar, but took me quite a while to figure out WHAT I'm looking at... !

    Just found that on the web while looking for some backup software...

    Art departments that create advertising material often recycle clip-arts, logos, small GIFs and PNGs for this kind of thing...

    They should have ran it through a few more filters if they wanted to rip it off, not just mirror it.

    That is quite interesting, and even though it is mirrored,.. it still quite easily evokes thoughts of BlackBerry.

    Guess BlackBerry's trademark enforcement team has something to do this Monday morning.

    For what it's worth, there are 'standard' flowchart symbols, and based on the context assuming the mirrored BlackBerry dots represent "stored data":

    Also worth noting is that the real BlackBerry dots represent "delay"... *sigh*

    For us CrackBerrians it's still distinguishable, for others it's more subliminal...

    Maybe just leave it that way... ;-)
