People should just try and respect people around them no matter if they are on a BB or just talking to someone next to them. It is annoying when people talk really loud on the bus while on the phone.

I have no stories about other bb users...but some non-bb users may have a story (or two) about me.

everybody knows the right time and/or place to use it.. not during dates most definately

BB etiquette - That's a simple one.

Under NO circumstances should they be used in a restaurant... Mobile phones are fine, but you don't want some cranky customer dropping your BB in the soup, now do you?

Also - BB's should never be used at petrol stations... Do you KNOW how long petrol fumes take to wear off???

Also - Never take your BlackBerry out while around me - It's almost a declaration of war, and steps WILL have to be taken! I, and only I alone, have the title of lord-high-master-mobile-user in my close vicinity! And if one should happen to pull out a Nokia, I shall weep for the BB I would be forced to use as a weapon to defend myself!

[LethalOreo]

will not use it while I am driving.

I love my crackberry. At first I didn't understand the meaning of the word, then I got one. Now I've been known to turn down sex for playing with crack. I'm sorry Traci - I love you, but crack is amazing!

I work in a cell phone store, atleast once a week someone will ask me for assistance while they continue to talk/text away.

I mean if someone that is talking to you about something important dont be texting your buddy about the party that night or how the surf is. Simple and effective trust me I made that mistake I was slapped when i was talking to this girl and my buddy texted me about the surf and i respond right away and she smacked me and walked away. Then i really new that I was addicted!! To surfing and my BB

As with any phone, ettiquete is important. Personally I feel the most important rule if any should be having the phone on vibrate during conversations with people.

[mattrev]

I'd hate to have to break rules.

[CRZ4BB]

Make sure you switch your profile to vibrate when you are in a meeting or in your bosses office specialy if you have a nasty ringtone.....

[Eddyj90]

I think there should be CELL PHONE etiquettes, like no texting when with a bunch of friends, thats really rude. No yelling into the phone (if the person can't hear you, its not my problem), especially in a public place. No annoying noises from your phone, especially on the bus.

Haha.

[Rymalone]

It depends what you are doing...the importance of your job or task being accomplished. I think there are places in which you should seriously thing about blackberrying before grabbing the awesome device.

It's annoying when you're in a movie theater and the person in front of you has their bb out. The screens are so bright it's very distracting. So no bb in the movies, please.

(even though sometimes I check mine... but at least i bend down so the people around me don't get distracted).
