Are you obsessed with your smartphone/tablets?

    I have seen a lot of people using their smartphones even while with friends and not just once, but very often.

    I will have to confess that I am one among them. Though I don't have any official mails or any kind of activity related to my office work on my personal smartphone, still I check my smartphone.

    Based on some of the studies, it was found that a lot of people fall into this category.

    How many of you fall into this category?

    Yes, probably if I had one of those tablets haha! But i also think those are not necessary for me.. my phone is still doing great and I probably put the money to wisely.

    I don't have a smarthphone or table probably i will never buy a smartphone or at least in few years phones are for talking not for being "cool"

    As for a tablet i might buy one as a gift for my Birthday this year as i need it for work but i'm still thinking 800-900$ is not a good price and with such money you can buy a decent Laptop so i'm not yet convinced to the use of it

    Not me,
    I have an Android Smart phone (X10). I love it, but not really obsessed with it.
    It's just a smart phone, I need it to keep in contact with my business clients while I'm on move..

    I'm a bit OCD though, so I keep backing up the data (contacts/text messages), in case I lose my phone anyhow.

    I love looking at all the new smartphones even though I can never afford to keep up with them

    Yes, I am the one but I don't use it much when with friends. Just once or twice to check my mails.
    Also planning to upgrade and get a better smartphone like Galaxy S2 or upcoming iPhone 5. :eek:

    I'm quite obsessed with my iPhone; however, I don't sit and ignore people just so I can play on it. Great for the obvious calls/texts, but also use it for checking up on websites, social messaging and emails. Previously had Blackberrys, so I guess I've always had a like for the "smart phone".

    I love my iPhone!!!!!! I pretty much just got it and it is so useful. I have never felt so CONNECTED to the FUTURE! It is just amazing... the apps...THE APPS! My business has really also benefited from it.

    I do not sit there on my phone when I am with people though. People are way more important that a lifeless screen...:eek:

    I have an iPhone 4 but I wouldn't say I'm obsessed with it. I really like how it works for me.

    I use both my phone and tablet religiously :p. Unfortunately, the majority of the time is spent playing/exploring online games XD
