I'll admit that I'm very addicted...I'm so addicted that I've been trying to talk my friends into getting one.

Mmm... My favourite BlackBerry Addiction story? That's going to be a short one..

I had a IT work colleague who had a Pearl, and I just HAD to get one... Then when I saw the Curve come out, I went gaga and called O2 up right then and there... And kept calling, and calling, and calling - Damn call-centres.. Thank the lord the calls were free! (It's amazing that you can actually get withdrawal symptoms, even if you have used something yet!!!)

The rest, as they say, is mystory! (No - It's not history; it's mine!)

Or - If I go out of the house and actually forget it, I get the jitters all day.. Seriously.. all bleeding day!

(Well - That wasn't that short, was it?)

This is my fiance's biggest complaint about my addiction. And for the record, she got me addicted, I just took it to the next level.

This is my first BB(curve), and I am addicted. I certainly don't want a cure for my addiction. I love this thing, I took an IQ test a couple of days ago, after a couple of year hiatus; and sure enough my IQ has gone up. I would certainly attribute a point or two to BB use.

I'd have to say I am addicted to my blackberry.

I use it for calendar to put down school assignments and when I work.

I use it to make calls.

Class can get borings, so you gotta love them games.

GREAT texting. My god, I was missing out all this time and no one even told me...

After having fed the family, prepared tomorrow's lunch for the crew, and thrown in a load of laundry, what's the first "me" thing I've done since leaving the office?

Well, I'm sitting here beside my extraordinarily beautiful 8310, glancing ever so frequently at her lovely complexion and curvaceous lines, while reading the Crackberry forums.

Addicted?

Ya think?

Once you start on the crack there is no turning around. Its only time before they come out with an addiction patch to help try and break the addiction in people.

If I can't fall asleep at night, I'm on my bb. The first thing I pick up in the morning is my bb. I think my significant other is jealous of my bb. that's sad, right?
