I'm with Betsy on this one - on both the northern highbush and rabbiteye type blueberries, the berries on a single bush never ripen all at the same time - in a cluster of, say 10-15 berries, there may only be 2 or 3 ripe berries on a given day - they ripen one-at-a-time, sporadically, over a period of weeks.
No way one of those pickers would work for us down here.
