Who knew? Google's Chairman and former CEO, Eric Schmidt, has admitted in a recent interview that he is addicted to his BlackBerry. Mr. Schmidt cannot break himself away from his BlackBerry because he apparently loves the keyboard too much. I feel sorry for Mr. Schmidt as it's probably a generational thing, but can you imagine Steve Jobs secretly carrying a BlackBerry?
I'm surprised that Schmidt would admit this in any kind of media. BlackBerry should definitely make a web ad out of it. The truth is, that some people simply prefer a tactile keyboard and that's that.

Speaking with the Guardian's editor in chief, Alan Rusbridger, at the Activate conference in India, Schmidt explained: "Look, I've tried to go cold turkey. I've tried to wear gloves all day. I've even tried screaming at Larry and Sergey that they should move to Canada. But nothing works. I'm addicted."
