Obama: A $25m+ Pitchman for BlackBerry

Nice article in The New York Times about Barack Obama devotion to his BlackBerry making him the preeminent pitchman in the world who could charge BlackBerry in the region of $25m to $50m for his endorsement. Barack, who naturally has not submitted an endorsement contract for signature, is consistently seen using his BlackBerry and saying how much it means to him.

A fly in the ointment for BlackBerry is that when he becomes president he is probably going to have to give up the device because of legal and security concerns. But he is fighting to the end for his BlackBerry: “I’m still clinging to my BlackBerry,” Mr. Obama said in an interview with CNBC and The New York Times. “They’re going to pry it out of my hands.”
