This article is the last one I'll read on this site. Amazingly poor - must be run by kidz.

'Bono is just a singer' .. ? You are just a prick.

Boy all you iphoners are bigger dbags than I thought. Yeah the iphone is nice, not the end all be all in technology. Last I looked BB isn’t doing too bad. As for U2 not being relevent… ha. They just spent 3 weeks as the most downloaded album on itunes; selling out 70k person stadiums in minutes; not to mention 5 stars in rolling stone for the new album. Just because they arent linked to steve (blow)jobs anymore doesnt mean they suck. (oh and by the way… that u2 iphone promo was pretty successfuly wasn’t were they relevent then?)

Do you guys remember when u2 sold a fanclub membership through Bestbuy for their big comeback tour? The point was that if you paid…I can’t remember? Like $200? You would get first dibs on the tickets for the tour through the fansite. I worked at Bestbuy at the time and tons of people bought the memberships. Then guess what? They refused to sell tickets through the site and released all the ticket on the general public with little notice. Affectivly screwing all their fans, and proving they can’t be trusted. By the way Bob, it dosent matter if Bono dies. Bono steals all the (RED) aids money to create legions of Bono clones poised to take over the world. While they wait for that day, they peel potatos. Potatos give him strength.

It seems that the group would like to release an app to engage with its fans. What’s stopping them from hiring a programmer to develop an iPhone app? Anyone can join the iPhone Development Program for like $99.

« Was RIM working on a special U2 application that would help the band interact with fans as part of its “U2 360″ tour? “You’re not far off,” Bono said. »

bono and u2 are so 1987. Their music has sucked since 1994 and they have no creative edge anymore. Don’t believe me, listen to their latest record. What’s it called, no line on the horizon (don’t know what horizon they’re looking at)? If you don’t have the latest craptastic record, turn on their last one, it sounds the same. Bono, good luck with your BB adventure. It will probably turnout like Zooropa and Pop.

Isn’t he some old rock star! He’ll probably just scream and smash any handset prototypes he doesn’t like on the ground.

fyi, U2′s latest album is VERY strong, give it a listen. Having said that, I think this PR stunt between Bono and RIM is extremely lame. It’s all about $$$$$$ I’m sure. In his spare time, Bono should stick to solving world hunger & peace instead.

If Bono wants to do something really spectacular, he should start by finding a new f**king guitar player.

I think what Bono means is that he plans to do some nice integration of music to the BlackBerry a la will.i.am

I would pay for a Steve Jobs cd. I have a feeling he would totally revolutionize the music industry with slick design and quality vocals.
