Well, this is embarassing. Came across this post from Crackberry and in what likely gave Blackberry users a good chuckle, Google’s former CEO and current executive chairman, Eric Schmidt, was spotted snapping pics all over Asia using his favorite smartphone… THE BLACKBERRY (shaking my head). This isn’t the first time homeboy’s been spotted with the device. He was caught back in ’09 with his gold plated BB snapping pics (below).
While I honestly think this is more funny than anything, I guess it would be the equivalent of Col. Sanders eating at Popeye’s or something of that nature (even if Schmidt is no longer Google’s CEO). I mean, couldn’t he have just picked up one of the many Android/Blackberry clones out there? I guess there’s something about using an simplistic and aging phone OS that the guy likes. Don’t worry, I’m sure he has the Nexus Prime in his back pocket.
