It is a truth universally acknowledged that a woman without a cell phone is in want of a Blackberry.
I am in the throes of serious Crackberry withdrawal here. This morning my phone went belly up with a "552 reload software" issue. First I spent the better part of the morning trying to reload the OS. The trick is to get the phone to recognize it is connected to the computer without it going into a booting loop over and over again. Found some helpful hints on Crackberry.com. But I have Vista. And Blackberry Desktop v 5.0. So the articles I found were out of date.
By 4 pm I gave up and went to the local AT&T store. Spent 45 minutes waiting for an AT&T rep to tell me he had never seen this before and had no idea what was wrong with my phone but I could: (1) try to fix it myself (Been there! Done that!), or (2) if I want to wait until next Thursday they can ship me out a replacement (NOT), or (3) tomorrow I drive to Cleveland to the service center where I can at least get handed a replacement. Sans my apps. Sans all my saved data. Sans contacts. But, hey, a new Blackberry. And it isn't even Christmas.
In the meantime I feel so out of it without my phone. No doubt about it. I am addicted. Crackberry indeed.
So if you were wondering--no, I am not ignoring your call. Yet.

1. I like the comment prior to mine. Totally on topic, and with adequate advice... What is this OSMO Wax Oil, anyways? A way to fix your phone, no doubt! ;-)
2. "It is a truth universally acknowledged that a woman without a cell phone is in want of a Blackberry." Not sure that it is a Blackberry they want, more likely to be an iPhone! No? Search your inner self! You know that's what you want!
