Some interesting statistics here maybe, apparently 77% of BlackBerry owners will not actually be benefiting from a proper break this Christmas. Why you may ask the answer is quite simply that they will all be checking their emails on Christmas day.
A recent study of over 1000 smartphone owners found that the majority of smartphone owners will check their mobiles over the festive season and over 2 thirds will actually be keeping regular checks on a daily basis.
45% actually claimed that their BlackBerry will be with them at all times, you know, just in case something really important arises. 26% simply said it is a habit that they are unable to break regardless of what day it is.
That is despite the fact that 49% expect their Christmas BlackBerry use to start a fight or argument with family members over the festivities probably via email or text. Maybe it would be the flashing red light that would catch your eye. Source – newslite.tv
