Obama grew to be hooked to his Blackberry during the campaign and has famously said that the NSA would need to pry it from his cold dead hands. As a geek, I know the feeling (although, I’m an Iphone guy myself).

The concern is security. First, all of the President’s communications are to be logged by law. Secondly, there are concerns about the President’s phone getting hacked. His communications could be used for espionage and all kinds of international hanky-panky.

Well, it looks like the NSA may have found a way for Obama to keep his beloved Blackberry. It is called the Sectera Edge.

Features include:

• One-touch switching between classified and unclassified PDA functions
• First ever on-the-move wireless access to the SIPRNET
• Intuitive, user-friendly interface
• NSA-certified and available today

So, its like, all secure and junk. And according to a CNN story, this is the phone Obama’s gonna be allowed by his geeks to use. We’ll see if the story is accurate. If so, should we call it the “first phone”?
