Any of you have one?

I don't have one but the BB is the product of choice in the company that I work for. Personally, I don't like to be that well connected - just means more work!

We have them at work, nicknamed the CrackBerry. If anyone finds a 12 step program for getting rid of them, let me know.

Friend of mine, his work dumped the CrackBerry's in favor of WebPhone with Palm software, running Outlook active-sync. Lots of software written for the Palm O/S compared to BB. I have thought about this, but would miss the Nextel Walkie Talkies we have now.

BTW, our AS/400 guy is in heaven. We found a terminal program for the BB and he now works 24/7 on his 400 via the 2.5 inch screen.

I noticed the other day that my cell now has a TV subscription with a free trial. Don't think I'm going to bother to look though.

I use my Dell Axim to watch movies on the Bus ride to and from work. I tried reading but my stomach can't handle the drivers we have.

I use an automated program to ftp them off my DirecTV TiVo, then encode them into a WMV for the little screen. Only manual part is coping them to my memory stick.

Pocket Divx?
