I did see where Obama dropped his Blackberry and SS picked it up for him. The article I read was hoping it broke and it would solve the legal problem of POTUS having his own phone line and the legal problems it can cause. Obama will consistently buck the system and do it anyway. Maybe they will tap his ultra secret phone calls like they did Blago. Hee!
I thought your point about Zer0 using his network of phone/web minions was very interesting. That immediately made me think of his Blackberry mishap. He can summon instant responses from his web-zombies.
