Too much would be if your children, husband (or wife), and pets all try to hide your blackberry.

(my cat has literally slept on it, trying to hide it from me).

Too much is when you don't pay attention to the important things in your life, like your kids/spouse/significant other.

When it gets in the way of that relationship, it's time to curb the BB use.

Too much is when someone asks...

What's the time? And you look at your Blackberry instead of your watch.
What are you doing tomorrow? And you whip out your Blackberry.
Where are you going? And you whip out your GPS Directions.
I wonder if its going to rain? And you show them your BBWeather

I experience all those

Hard to say what is too much without hitting it first. Then backing down a notch.

Too much time would be if it interferes with important aspects of one's life like family, friends, and/or work.

Too much is when:

1) you're eyes are bloodshot red and you're cracked out beyond recognition

2) When you shower with one hand dry so you have access to checking your berry

3) you give your berry a pillow instead of your gf LOL

4) Too much is never enough!!!

Too much is when on only your second day with the device, and after hours of BB-play, your husband returns home to find you inexplicably exhausted, sound asleep, and with your death-gripped hand wrapped around your hot new 8310.

In the intervening days, my behavior hasn't changed one iota.

To much is when you are in the hospital in a no fone area and you go into serious cravings for your BB and to turn it on.

too much is when your on your using your phone (texting, email, web, etc..) while enjoying a movie.

but yeah, more than two hours is pretty crazy. but if your a real business person, i guess that is acceptable.

there is actually someone on CB.com that thinks that 20 minutes a day is TOO much for BB usage????? whats that about?

too much is when you get blisters on your thumbs/fingers..

I don't think there is such a thing as too much time spent on the BB. Maybe when the battery dies... but that's what spare batteries are for, right?

You can never use your Blackberry too much. Impossible.
