His clients are probably as virtual as the various nyms he posts under.

Let's see,

Oxford, Bill Gates, Mark Thompson, none, Wegie, Mr T, Gene Jones.

Seven "clients", seven nyms. Coincidence? You decide...

I'm not sure that the Star Wars figures you have on your desk in your
mom's basement actually count as clients. 8)

The main reason more companies are not switching to iPhones is the cost
of switching. I know too many Blackberry users who lust for the iPhone,
but they're required to use the company-issued one.

I'd also venture to say that a huge percentage of Blackberry users were
given phones and service by their companies. Free is better than pay.
