We have a "Crackberry" addict at work. I think he would be lost without it.

i have a blackberry. which IS my left arm.

it was only a slight disturbance. i heard the news on my way to NY this morning... then this afternoon, heading to Cincinassti... it was fine.

I was in meetings and mine was off. Didn't even know it. Plus, Grey Goose was still available in the hotel bar when I got back. Life is OK.

Can't blame me - yet! So far I've been able to get by with a laptop and cell phone, but with my job responsibilities, I can see the day coming ...

... I'll somehow be responsible for everybody's Blackberry not working - like the guy in the commercial who keeps hitting the wall switch and the lady's garage door a couple houses away is smashing into her car over and over!!

Personally, I am connected to my Motorola Q. Which runs a real version of Windows, yet unbelievably does not crash much.

Not only that, but I can use internet explorer on my phone. It works pretty flawless.

Windows Mobile 5.0 rocks!

and NO, I'm not addicted.

I never understood how being attached to email was all that when you can view a web page instead. I can log on to my outlook web access and read reply and delete emails from work, PLUS browse the internet...

Listen to streaming media, watch videos, etc etc etc etc...

So much better than my bosses 'berry...
