Some of the interesting terms around Blackberry includes Crackberry since business owners are now conducting business every waking moment and during times well business should not be conducted - while eatting or even while using the restroom! Yes... there are just some things that you cannot make up and truth is stranger than fiction!
While I was pouring over the owner's manual, I discovered an interesting feature - The ON / OFF button. There are 3 ways to turn off your Blackberry: holding the red disconnect button, a quick off switch feature on the main menu or my favorite the automatic on/off switch. These phones are so smart that you can preset the hours you are at work during the standard work week and during the weekend. This way your phone has a chance to rest, according to the directions.
Isn't it interesting to know that even the phone knows that it cannot work 24/7 and as business owners we think that it is normal to work all the time. So who is smarter a phone that can automatically rest or the business owner who has become addicted to the very device that is supposed to make their life easier?
