I'm outta the loop, too as haven't heard anything about it. Though a random guess would be they don't want him to have openly accessible access as president? That or having a line that's easier to tap in and listen in on.

If he keeps presidential business off limits with the blackberry, what's the big deal?

I think he should be able to keep it. I am sure they could find some way to protect it...maybe removing the GPS chip or something along those lines... :noclue:

I won't pretend to be particularly familiar with the blackberry platform, nor even which device he uses, but I would have to imagine there would be a sufficient way to protect it.
