I'm a loyal Blackberry user as well - something about a clickable keyboard just cannot be beat. Regardless, I'm being tempted by those lacquer-finished iPhones. While they don't have a leather backplate, they have a plethora of applications, nimble connectivity and a serious community to back them. Last year at a tech event I was ostrocized when I whipped out my Crackberry and was scorned when I explained my hestitation to join the cult of Apple. I can get the job done on my Blackberry, but everyday I get closer to my contract expiring and the release of the iPhone 4G: judgement day. I wonder if you find this too, considering your line of work and the penchant many in the marketing/tech/media circle have for iPhones. I can't tell whether my dedication to RIM is me being stubborn or whether it's justified! Chris, I feel your pain.

You have two options depending on your BlackBerry make and model. Either go to our mobile site to get a reader http://link.me or if you have BlackBerry Messenger 5 it has a reader pre-installed on it just open BlackBerry messenger and find the Scan Barcode option. If you have any more questions you can follow us @sxswqr or email sxsw@qmcodes.com Hey Chris,

I am down here at SXSW, and already have had my badge scanned by a BlackBerry today. In fact, on the SXSW Website they suggest that you use I-Nigma or BeeTagg QR Code readers for BlackBerry. Although they have an iPhone app (no android), it is not required to use their QR Code. Hello,
