Obama With An iPad—Is He Ditching The Blackberry?


U.S. President Barack Obama was seen carrying an iPad on his arm.  This may be a sign that the U.S. government is clearly taking advantage of the latest in technology, according to the Washington Post.  A recent interview with America’s chief information officer, Vivek Kundra, it reveals that Obama is at the tip of the IT change.  The U.S. government is allowing its workers to leave their desks with handheld gadgets to handle their daily work exactly the way the President does.  Obama was known to use a Blackberry phone and because he was seen with an iPad, he was thought of ditching his Blackberry.  This is obviously untrue.

Excerpt:

“When Barack Obama took office in January 2009, much ado was made about his efforts to keep his Research in Motion (RIMM) Blackberry. Two years later, Obama sports an iPad under his arm. Does this mean it’s time to short RIMM?”
