Where's the Love, Bono?

Our friends from atu2.com just got the scoop on the new U2 / RIM Blackberry collaboration. Blackberry will soon be introducing something called the U2 Mobile Album. The application will let fans get the latest tour news, listen to music, watch video and share photos.
You may remember Bono stating they switched to RIM due to Apple's unwillingness to grant them "access to their labs and people." Well despite being huge U2 fans, we're just not buying that. This Blackberry app doesn't appear to do anything more than what Trent Reznor is offering with his NIN app available on iTunes right now. We think U2 was looking for a tour sponsor and Apple was unwilling to part with the money, and now fans are stuck using a boring Blackberry instead of a sexy iPhone 3GS.
Bono, next time leave the technology decisions to The Edge.
