It's a tool. I use it as a tool. I am too busy with other things to let it control my life.

But I have to have a cell phone at work, so why not a BB? That's not an addiction - it's a NEED!

I've only had my Curve for a couple of weeks, and I know I'm getting to the point of addiction. I'm constantly on forums for blackberries, searching every site for new word on new devices and the upcoming 4.3 OS, and now I'm on here instead of studying for finals!

I am so addicted and I haven't even had this thing for a month. I check Crackberry.com like 100 times a day to read all the new posts. Use my BB to read and reply to my emails, browse the web, add calendar appointments, etc. when I'm at work and have my desktop computer right in front of me.

Before I go to bed I always put the BB on phone only profile. I can't bring myself to turn it off totally though!

Easiest way to pry me away from the crack is either good lookin women, or food even then it may have to be a combination of the 2! lol

Well "addiction" is such a negative term....I prefer to say that I get complete utter enjoyment with the contant possbily unhealthy overuse of my blackberry. But I will say that it does get kinda bad when your child is asking when are you gonna cook dinner and you're in the middle of searching for new things on handango or CB....sad really but im in the process of teaching him to cook for himself. Im thinking that by the time he's ten, he should be a master chef.

The easiest way to avoid the addiction is to ask the woman in your life to hold it when you're at a restaurant, recital, church, or the like. The scowl of a woman--especially when you're ignoring her or your child--puts you in your place.

I sometimes hold it close to me while I sleep so I feel the vibrations.

I'm definitely addicted, who wouldn't be. Whenever I get too neurotic with my BB, I just throw it under one end of the couch and sit at the other end.
