Nokia E62
So my company now gives me a Blackberry Handheld ... a Nokia E62 for staying connected to emails 24x7 .

I'm starting to like it actually , The fact that I can stay updated on emails with Blackberry Connect and reply almost anywhere anytime ...its great.( the full QWERTY keyboard is helpful too :))
And for a person like me who's twitching to know every minute how the latest builds are faring during the release its a blessing !
Basically for the project I'm been working on for the past year - Project Matrix , its a necessity .
With teams working on it from atleast 6 geographical locations and a dizzy amount of checkins every day , it can tame any seasoned software engineer out there to figure out " how did that damn feature break ?"
Its also necessary for people to reply almost immediately to questions posed to them , because if one chooses to reply back in normal office hours in their time zone , you're looking at an unacceptable 12 hours response time !
While some people might argue that it actually eats into their personal life , well... to each his own ... I think I prefer staying updated about work rather than wondering if that guy has replied back to my email and wondering what issues await me at work tomorrow when I check my emails in the morning .
