BlackBerry vs. Treo
I'm an avid reader of Paul Kedrosky who authors a blog called Infectious Greed, you should read it too. Anyway, I've found some of the more illuminating posts he writes to be about Google Trends, more specifically how you can use Google Trends to see... well.. trends.

Looks like the guys at RIM are kicking some ass. Also of note: check out the top cities at the bottom of the page. New York and Washington DC are the top two regions that originate these searches (which makes sense since New York and DC might be the financial and political hubs of the world) and the BlackBerry leads by a large margin over the Treo in Washington DC.
