One celebrity I never get to use in my regular Match the Celeb With the Cell Phone feature is Oprah Winfrey. Why? Because girlfriend "didn't" have a cell phone — until now! On a recent episode of her show, Oprah revealed to financial guru Suze Orman that she finally got a CELL PHONE! As reluctant as she was to come over to the cell phone dark side, Oprah decided it was time and showed off her latest tech toy at Tuesday's election night victory rally in Chicago.

From what my geeky eyes can see, Oprah either has a shiny and new BlackBerry Bold or a BlackBerry 8830 World Edition model. How cute is the matching case/outfit combo? She's already working the trendy tech accessories! I wonder what made her realize it was time to get techie? Maybe her new found love for the Kindle?

That is so funny that she never had a cell phone. That just goes to show you can run a billion dollar company and not be a slave to electronics.
1if you're oprah, you don't need a cell phone because you have 4 assistants trailing behind you wherever you go
2if she needs to get ahold of stedman or gayle or other personal calls, she can use one of theirs (which she obviously pays for) and all busines stuff would come through there too
but her green combo is adorable!
That colour coordination is fantastic! I didn't know she didn't have a cellphone but I do think that we over-stress ourselves with them.
3Loving how she coordinates! Too funny, I never knew she didn't have a cell phone. Good for her!
4Skigurl, that makes sense as to why she'd never have a cell phone... still, it's surprising she didn't have one.
I was excited to see her at Obama's acceptance speech, she looked soooo happy. It was great.
5There are many days I wish I wasn't a slave to my cell phone. Too bad Oprah had to come to the dark side.
