I've been afraid to post it as it might spark debate in of itself - I work for Santorum 2006 (Senator Rick Santorum's re-election campaign).

[JWin]

not gonna vote for lynn swan?

[Ultima Designs]

Swann's the Republican for governor, Santorum's the Republican for Senator. I'll be voting for both this fall. The opposing candidates are Ed Rendell, Democrat for governor, and Bobby Casey, Jr., Democrat for Senate.

[JWin]

oh, why was I thinking swann was running for senate, bleh I need to pay more attention

And people actually use those things to go to work?

[Ultima Designs]

What things? BlackBerries? They're incredibly popular in the political world - just about every decently sized campaign or elected official's office uses them.

Why? So they are easier to get hacked?

Most Fortune 1,500 companies equip their Management and Representatives with Blackberries. It's almost standard issue these days.

being able to get your email and work on spreadsheets on the run, without having to bust out the laptop makes a freelancer's life easier in such a highpaced world.

You have a lot of choices.....the only thing I am not sure of is what kind of network requirements you have. Take a look at these:

I still like this phone:

There are tons of others out there. You just need to get what you want in a phone set in your head and then search for those features.

Yep, I'm GSM. You're not recommending those to me are you? Cos, um, all of those cost a leg and an arm to buy. I dont have that kinda money. The one im getting now...on staff discount I'll be able to grab it for $215US (114GBP).

Ya thread hijackers! So, still waiting for more thoughts on the phone, I agree with Mark about the uglyness, but bleh, since when has that mattered?

[silverx2]

im just curious, but have you ever thought about taking some self defense classes.. or like moving somewhere where nobody knows you, because lets be honest.. you get robbed/mugged/stuff stolen alot zak

[zakp0]
