Just days after his inauguration, Barack Obama will apparently be the first U.S. president to use a smartphone while in office. White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs told reporters Thursday that the new president will use a BlackBerry to stay in contact with a circle of senior staffers and close friends, despite concerns expressed earlier by the U.S. Secret Service and the National Security Agency. “Like many executives, he’s going to get what he wants,” said Jonathan Penn, an analyst at Forrester Research.
