Check out Russell Shaw's BlackBerry blog

We have a new BlackBerry blog with a familiar face--Russell Shaw.

Russell is used to covering the BlackBerry market at BBHub. But when the BBHub was decommissioned it made a lot of sense to toss another blog Russell's way. He also covers broadband and VOIP for ZDNet.

While Russell has been riffing on the BlackBerry 8800 today Research in Motion's patent application for a "pickpocket mode" when a device is stolen may have bigger implications. Talk about a handy feature.
