    the only one that pertains to me (slightly) is #11, but rather than depression, I get PISSED if my S2 crashes or won't connect a call when it's in landscape mode or won't go into speaker phone mode.

    Yes, but this is not all bad. BB makes my life better enough to tolerate the illness.

    Dave...you must have **** poor luck. I have had my S2 for over a year now and I use it hard. Never have I had the problems you claim to have. Not doubting you but I always see you mentioning various problems you have. I know a good amount of people with an S2 and they don't have near this amount of problems.

    Lucky them. In the last 3 days I've had difficulty answer 3 calls, due to glitches in the UI. I don't have trouble ALL the time--just sporadically. And your use of the word "claim", followed by "not doubting you" could have been reduced to just saying "Never have I had the problems that you have had".

    yes, yes I do

    2. Complete happiness when u reach a traffic light or get stuck in traffic
    I was guilty at one time but licked it. I play by the rules. Never play in the car

    3. You giggle or burst out into hysterical fits of laughter even when you are alone
    ...occasionally without my BB too! That gets a few odd stares.

    5. Back aches, neck pains and problems with posture
    and I thought it was because I am aging, who knew?

    7. You sleep with your BB beside u
    of course, it's an alarm clock

    8. Completely obsessed with BBM
    I wish more users were

    9. Free publicity & marketing for BB
    Always!

    I sleep in a double bed.

    I get one pillow. My BB gets the other. We sleep well.


    Although, it's going to get PISSED when I get my PB.

    Checked all. The only that doesn't apply is the one about making fun of Nokia. I like Nokia too! Just not like my Blackberry. I have exams coming up soon, I'd better lock it up or something :S

    A lot have tried taking a droid or i4G, but eventually most find it's just a remission.

    Yes, Mr. Bazzilion posts doesn't have a problem.

    Nothing but clucks, from my bro the king of the road?

    Individually they are at a minimum suprrssing your immune system. In groups, all self-control will be lost.

    If you are so happy at #2, that you end up #1, your problems go well beyond the scope of this study.

    This thread made me laugh like heck! I am guilty of everything on it. I have some things to add though:

    -Waking up in the middle of the night (multiple times) to check on it.
    -I sleep with it next to me...on the bed...within arm's reach.
    -Staring at its awesomeness for minutes on end.
    -Sometimes worry about placing it down too close to an edge where it could vibrate and fall off and break, causing immediate, irreversible depression.
    - ^Got an OtterBox just in case.
    -Realizing what an insane obsession/addiction you have to a small communication device...and accepting that as completely normal
