“No Crackberries in bed! Having your work sprawled all over your home is bad enough, but taking the business phone everywhere you go in the house is ever worse. Carving little areas in your home where it should stay technology-free is a good way to calm your mind from the constant stream of work-related issues. Ultimately, you need to call it. What’s more important to you – that pending e-mail or your loved ones?”
It’s true for iPhones too.
