Default Blackberry addicts

My employer provides a Blackberry for work use. After a year of using it, I have found myself quite addicted, at least from 8 to 5. I couldnt imagine working without it. Anyone share my addiction?

I wouldnt have one for personal use, It gets turned on at 730 and off at 530. Still, I couldnt imagine getting much done anymore without it.

Honestly, for me at least, its not any more stressful than before, in fact, emails that I used to have to deal with at the end or beginning of every day, get dealt with on the fly, as they occur (usually) one less thing to pile up.

Now if they send a big attachement that they want us to go over, thats different :(

I'll probably be getting a Crackberry soon, but no yet (luckily)

I can see them if you are away from your desk most of the day or always on the move. But to schedule 100 worthless meetings a day.. you may as well take care of email.
