Sprint uses sleight of hand to make Android model run on the BlackBerry OS

Wait a second! Tha's not a BlackBerry |
The average television viewer or smartphone user might not have even noticed the gaffe, and it might have had nothing to do with that lookalike QWERTY on the Motorola Admiral. But common sense tells us that someone mistook the phone for a BlackBerry device and inserted the incorrect OS in the ad. It's not a big deal and we're sure that the boo-boo hasn't cost Sprint any sales of the device. It's just a story for you to chuckle about and pass along at the water cooler heading into the weekend.

more than likely like in any ads on tv or print usually use a "simulation of actual Screen"
so probably photoshopped into by the ad agency
