I'm a BB fiend too but I feel neither guilty nor any taste of nostalgia to the pre-blackberry era. I simply don't think that I'm obliged to answer all the emails immediately if I have a BB on my belt. Cancel it completely? I wouldn't go for that. I use it to be in the picture of what's going on, not to answer every email. I primarily answer from my notebook unless it's really critical. It's interesting how email culture is developed in every group. My boss, for instance, answers really urgent emails instantly but others, with lower severity, can get answered in days. We know that if he doesn't answer he simply is checking something and no sense to remind him again. I see that people load or position is not related to the answering latency at all. I know some very executive people returning emails in hours and other beginning managers that can "forget" to answer an email or return a call. Anyway, Dave, interesting approach (a bit too radical to me:-). Keep us posted as the time goes. Interesting how we make ourselves blackberry slaves.
