When I'm away from my laptop, especially when I'm a passenger in a car stuck on the M25, I'll spend the vast majority of my time browsing the web on my N95, chronically checking email and twittering to vent my frustration at the roadworks. Only when I'm a passenger though. It's the 37% who check their email while driving that worry me a little! I dread to think what I'd be like with a Crackberry though. Kevin Nalty's "Crackberry" video comes to mind: http://youtube.com/watch?v=JqKEe_JEObg I guess I’m also partially guilty of this.

There's nothing worse than getting stressed wondering how many emails I have to deal with on my return from holiday. “Rather concerningly, around 40% of those surveyed plan their holiday around the availability of access to their email, and 83% admit to checking their mail while away. ”

That certainly applies to me – I will not book a hotel that does not supply free internet access.

I discipline myself to checking / responding to my email just twice a day – early am and late pm. Well, I do also glance at my Crackberry throughout the day…

It also doubles as my alarm clock. Just last week I got an email at 4am that kept me up for more then an hour while I was thinking about how to handle it in the morning. I also keep checking my phone waiting for an email from Ewan. Hint hint hint. I take my E61i to be with me so I can send a few more emails and read what comes in after I turn off my computer.

It's on a Windows Mobile phone, not a Blackberry, and in the mornings, not evenings. I am very much not a morning person, so when I'm trying to come to terms with the unpleasant idea of getting out of bed checking my email is one way to put it off for a while. Or at weekends when a nice kind husband has brought me a cup of extra strong coffee to drink while sitting up in bed :-) Meet a woman who checks her email in bed!

Sorry guys, but you don't need to be checking your email every moment of every evening! And I don't know any woman who does it! I wonder …when they say “they”, do they mean “men”?
