    Obama was forced to use a Blackberry while president and he hated it.

    “I get the thing, and they’re all like, ‘Well, Mr. President, for security reasons … it doesn’t take pictures, you can’t text, the phone doesn’t work, … you can’t play your music on it,’” Obama said during an appearance on The Tonight Show this week. “Basically, it’s like, does your three-year-old have one of those play phones?”
