In your face, iPhone! CrackBerry addicts now have a new way to show their loyalty to the smartphone--by dangling tiny versions from their ears.

And there's no need to fear added radiation from these BlackBerrys. The earrings, which measure about three-quarters of an inch high--are made from Fimo, a polymer clay. They were selling for $3 (plus shipping) on Etsy, an online market for homemade goods, but they're sold out now.

Syncing BlackBerry with Mac OS X


Mac users are often left holding the short straw when it comes to smartphones that can sync with Mac OS X. If you believe the hype, it almost seems as if Apple's own iPhone is the only way to go. Well, it's not. Plenty of other phones can be synced with iCal, Entourage, and even Address Book. You just need the help of a third-party software package. In this tip segment, I'll focus on the BlackBerry.
