The NYT reports that Obama is probably going to have to kick his Crackberry habit.  While “a decision has not been made on whether he could become the first e-mailing president, … aides said that seemed doubtful.”  He will, however, bring some digital change to the White House:

For all the perquisites and power afforded the president, the chief executive of the United States is essentially deprived by law and by culture of some of the very tools that other chief executives depend on to survive and to thrive. Mr. Obama, however, seems intent on pulling the office at least partly into the 21st century on that score; aides said he hopes to have a laptop computer on his desk in the Oval Office, making him the first American president to do so.
