A while ago we told you how President-Elect Barack Obama will have to give up his famous BlackBerry handset. It looks like now he’s trying to keep it.

Here’s what he said in an interview with Barbara Walters:

One of the things that I’m going to have to work through is how to break through the isolation, the bubble that exists around the president. And I’m in the process of negotiating with the Secret Service, with lawyers, with White House staff … to figure out how can I get information from outside of the 10 or 12 people who surround my office in the White House. Because one of the worst things I think that can happen to a president is losing touch with the struggles that people are going through every day.

We’ll keep you updated on this particular BlackBerry user! He might be a President that likes to modify the Presidential Records Act.
