The Edge Is A BlackBerry User

U2 guitarist, David Howell “The Edge” Evans is a BlackBerry user. This screen cap, we made, is pretty crappy, but you can watch the full video HERE. He holds the BlackBerry in his hand the whole time. It seems to be a BlackBerry in the 7200 series.

This is so obviously a faked photo. Everyone knows that U2 standardized on Palm Treo. Edge would never use a blackberry. In fact, what do you think the song “Sunday, Bloody Sunday” is all about? It’s about RIM’s email outages! Next thing you’ll be telling me that Bono is a Mac head.

Get a clue, fanboy!

Haha… fake photo of what? We made this screen-cap ourselves from the video. Click on the link and watch it for yourself. The only thing we can say about your comment is that maybe Edge isn’t actually using a BlackBerry but something that looks familiar to it. But still, we’re 80% sure from the looks of it, that it’s a BlackBerry.
Also, from my understanding, “Sunday Bloody Sunday” has nothing to do with a BlackBerry. And if Bono is a Mac head, I wouldn’t be surprised since U2 partnered with Apple for their own iPod a while ago.

Guys:

If you watch part 1 of the video, the Edge is doing yoga with a BlackBerry in his hands while Bono asks “Whats the BlackBerry got to do with it?”

They both continuously refer to the BlackBerry in their chatter and the Edge checks his email several times as well.

Check the video starting at about 7:10min
