Trend Blackberry

So here is my story. I've been a blackberry user for quite some time now. At school, I was the kid with the new fancy blackberry in which everyone always gave their attention too while they still use their old regular samsung,mortorola etc. After a couple of months later... my friends shows up with a blackberry after a contract upgrade. Everyday from school I see new students popping up with blackberrys left and right. It seems like everyone around now wants a blackberry or some what type of phone that has a physical full keyboard. I see many people with their new blackberry when they clearly don't know what it really is for. I notice these blackberry users just use the phone for any regular phone. Everything is totally stock with not a single app installed. It seems like more people are into the phone rather than the potential of what a blackberry is for. Does anyone notice this? It just make someone thinks that "oh he has a blackberry, nothing special." Does anyone feel this way? It just makes me want to get the lastest blackberry out there so I dont have to have the same phone as them. Any thoughts?
