Move over, Al Gore: John McCain invented the BlackBerry

You're either an iPhone guy or a BB guy. No explanation.

It's like you're either a Benz guy or a Bimmer guy. One or the other (for the most part).

check my sig... i have a benz AND a bimmer so your theory is void based on example...

its like being either a Stones or Beatles guy: you may like them both, but deep down YOU DO like ONE more than the other.
