I thought that having a Blackberry World Edition would ensure that no matter where I was in the world, I would have access to my email. My test destination is Rio, where I write this post, and fortunately my laptop has saved the day.
Upon landing, I turned on my Blackberry to find a fresh set of email and began replying to some of them. Sadly, those replies never went through. Then, after a reboot, I received a few complimentary text messages to indicate that I could receive messages. I can receive phone calls and likely make them, but at $2.00 per minute, I don’t plan on taking any calls.
My laptop however is my office away from the office. Whether I am home, in the backyard, or on vacation, it serves its purpose flawlessly. And, with Skype installed I can make phone calls for just pennies and be in action seamlessly. Whereas many announce to the world that they are on vacation, I slip it into my weekly activity, telling only my office and some clients. I am not trying to be evasive, I am only living up to my title: Chief at Large.
