Blackberry Addicts come clean!
By Amy Wood

I would never choose my blackberry over my husband as a vacation companion.
But a new study shows many blackberry addicts would.
Sheraton hotels surveyed U.S. customers and found of 6,500 traveling executives 35% would choose their PDA over their spouse.
Now, don’t think I am telling you I am not an addict. I am. I check my blackberry constantly. Surf facebook, for updates from friends. Head to Twitter, to see what my tweeps are saying. Text with my 12 year old. It’s constant and all consuming. But vacation is vacation.
And while my husband loves to complain about my blackberry use and bills, he can’t complain about this: 87% of the people surveyed said they brought their blackberry into the bedroom. Not me! How about you?
Come clean on the level of your blackberry or other PDA addiction!

LOL…I know a few of those people. I think alot of it has to do with who you marry.
Amy, I would definitely say I’m addicted to my Crackberry. I got my first one at my new job and I bring/use it everywhere. I have it tricked out with useful applications (Gmail, Twitter, Facebook, Google Talk) and it’s become an indispensable part of my day.
I even use it while eating at Waffle House. Fork in one hand, Blackberry reading NYT (er, CW News) in the other.
