I love my Blackberry with all my heart, but I love my life too, is the only time we did not use

BB ettiquette does not seem to be a good idea, it would be very boring

[carlosbcs23]

absolutely not, you can put in risk your and others people life!!

talking on the phone is OK...with some sort of a headset and all phones should support voice dialing! I have become spoiled with mybluetooth and the voice dialing feature of the Curve. I will never go back to dialing with my hands....

[oskaru]

As for me, I think it would be appropriate to see more people using head sets, I do believe here in California there is a law that will go into effect next year in JUNE 2008 that one will have to use a head set while driving due to some congress woman getting into a car accident and then trying to pass that law. Again though studies have shown accidents have more frequently been committed while those driving and talking on their mobiles.

people should use their own judgement...

[eledril]

I think that it should only apply to those who don't use headsets or bluetooth.

[tealturboser]

Yes they should but not limited to Blackberrys it should be for all phones. I admit I do text/email in the car sometimes, but I try not to in real traffic.. my work route take sme through several lights so in those 30 second bursts I can read mail and send texts etc

[kamkarkar]

No, I personally don't think so. I use my BB quite often, but responsibly. I feel as though "Big Brother" has restricted us enough already as it is.

[pjminn]

Not if it can be done hands free.

[biggem001]

It shouldn't be illegal for only bb's.

If they were going to do that, make it all phones.

[movieguy00]

Maybe should make it neccessary to use hand free kits while talking on the phone...but for the most part phone talking, cigarette smoking, beverage drinking (non-alcoholic) should all be allowed. If something happens because of it...then the person should be held responsible not the item in question...text messaging and emailing on blackberry (or any other phone) should not be done while driving...can't look at keyboard or screen while trying to drive. however holding a phone to your ear is somewhat different...

[bulbboy]

unfortunately I do use it whenever I feel like it - please don't drive next to me!!

[kriegster]

Again, Friends don't let friends drive on Crack.

I scared myself once while checking an email...talking (very short conversations) is all now.
