Blackberry vs. paper calendar/cell phone

I really like my paper calendar. I'm not a big cell phone user.

It seems like everyone I work with uses a Blackberry.

Is there something I'm missing out on? I mean, I have maybe 2-3 things scheduled a day, and I doubt these people have any more. I check my work email about twice every night, using my home pc. Does a Blackberry make life a lot easier somehow?

I don't think a blackberry is worth it to keep your dates in order.

I'd like a blackberry for email purposes. But I'd also like DH not to have a blackberry because of the way the emails distract him!! Chat Icon

Does he get like a beep or something when a new email arrives? Does it cost more than a cell phone does for monthly usage?

I think his vibrates for email ... he doesn't pay for his but I assume they have some sort of unlimited data transfer rate.

I like my paper calendars. I have a planner and a desk blotter that I write things on.

I get joy out of crossing things out- so I would not get a blackberry

plus in my company- if you have one- you are expected to answer emails ALL THE TIME- no excuses
no thanks
