This has to be one of the most extraordinary bad adverts I've ever seen. It manages to completely pinpoint why I refused to use one in the US and refuse to carry one now.
In case you don't know, Blackberry supplies an always-on phone / email feed so you will get emails all the time as they arrive with no need for the owner to "log in" or ask for their emails. They arrive when you are at work, at airports, as you travel to work, as you go home, as you eat dinner, as you sit in the bath. as you talk to your friends and family. They beep when they arrive.
Why on earth would the prospect of less downtime appeal to me? Why does downtime need to be recovered? Why is this making me angry? At what point did I become a Luddite?
