don’t go skiing without a Blackberry

I don’t have anything against Blackberries, if I didn’t have an iPhone my choice would be a Crackberry (just not the Storm). And it also seems that they can save your life if you fall down a crevasse… At least that’s what the Telegraph is saying:

A skier who slipped into a crevasse in the Swiss Alps was saved from falling 700ft to his death by his Blackberry mobile phone.

David Fitzherbert’s half-inch wide handset in his breast pocket caused him to get wedged in a crack of ice, stopping him from falling further.

So if you are an avid skier it might be a good idea to invest in a Blackberry… I wonder if there’s an app for that in the iTunes store…
