Right now I'm between appointments (my first appointment went surprisingly fast) and here I find myself with plenty of time to check emails and blog. I've never blogged before from my Blackberry, so I thought I'd give it a try. Having this phone/computer/day planner/modem is the best tool I've ever come across as an agent. it allows me to be away from my office and still be actively connected to my clients. If you don't have one and you are a real estate agent I think it is definitely something to look into getting. No more do I have to tie myself to a computer. I can actively market myself all day and when clients have questions or concerns I'm instantly available to help them. When I'm out and I need more computing power (Blackberry's can't do it all...yet) I just plug my Blackberry into my laptop and use it as a wireless modem. My phone also has a great mapping feature that is about as good as any of those expensive GPS devices out there. This thing does it all and I hope that you have the priveledge to use great technology like this. What impresses me is that it is only going to get better. Also, if anyone has an iphone I'd like to hear from you. Is it a great business tool (not just a great mp3 and video device)? Note, excessive use and lack of discretion can lead to habitual use of the Blackberry and turn it into the well known Crackberry. Which may lead to you receiving scowls from your spouse when you return emails at 10:00 pm at night.
