BlackBerry booster Alicia Keys blames hacker for iPhone Twitter update
BlackBerry's recently appointed Global Creative Director Alicia Keys has blamed a hacker for posting an update to her Twitter account using an iPhone. This is all a bit awkward because the musician was hired to plug BlackBerry’s new smartphone model, Z10, less than three weeks ago. She said she had been tempted away from …
"I've been hacked"
It's the "dog ate my homework" of the digital age.
Hacked my arse...
She excepts the money, then uses the better product - Also just in the news, the top man at CrapBerry just sold all his shares. That shows confidence in his company. Rats and sinkingship comes to mind.
FAIL because thats whats happening at BlackBerry.

A cheaper and tackier version of the Florida Keys?
Love it when PR stunts backfire!
"has blamed a hacker for posting an update to her Twitter account using an iPhone" - probably a weak password.
This reminds me of the US talk show host, Oprah I think her name is, who was sponsored by MS to plug the Surface. She used an iPad to post to twitter saying how much she "loved" her Surface. Hehehehe
It will be fun to see how much market share Blackberry gains now it's next gen models are out. They are very much the underdog and despite their past self destruction, I wish them well. They compete on merit and not on buying the market.
Unlike Google, MS and Apple, Blackberry are 100% focused on phones with no distractions, so they should be formidable in terms of not having to compromise their strategy.

Isn't Oprah the chick from Les Mis?
