Blackberry... or Crackberry?
K, so as many of you know, I was issued a Blackberry for work. And as many of you know, I don't really use it for work.. haha. I spend most of my Blackberry time playing games, even at times in the middle of the night to the chagrin of my wife. So, now I open the question up to y'all. Is this an addiction? Or is it just a fad that will simply fade along with my Palm Pilot phase, Sony VAIO UX phase, etc. If it is just a phase, I won't think too much about it, but if it's an addiction, I need to start laying down some rules for myself.
