This seems to be the current view of many. I personally hate what BB did to my career and industry - people thought, hey, I can leave my office, I thought wonderful, people will expect an answer at all times even for non urgent crap. I think this was 2003. I despised it so much I refused to get one in the early years. I only got one to satisfy my boss and to do personal work but basically and almost never looked at or responded out of business hours. I had an iPhone 1g, 3, 3G but stopped since cost got silly. I then just reverted to my Bb bold 9000 since my company did not pay data if you used an iPhone. So I asked to get an android device and they said they do not intend to support it at work. So I waited and bought the Z10 on release hear in YYZ. So, I, a complete BB hater, iPhone liker, love the Z10. Go figure.
