 Useless book culled from a fantastic website... Jan 24, 2009
Sorry...I love the Crackberry site, spend hours reading the forums, LMAO at the great posts there, and get tons of useful and relevant advice and tips from the website....but what the heck? Trying to bottle that magic from the site into a book like this just doesn't work for me. I get tons more out of spending 20-30 minutes on the site than reading this book cover-to-cover. Maybe this book can serve to attract more users to Crackberry...or even to become Blackberry users/abusers (whatever!), but for anyone who already knows where to go to read and share all things Blackberry (whether serious or humorous), this book seems a waste of money. It's fine for handing to a non-wired Mom or Grandma to humorously show her you're an overwired geek (and you love it)...but that's about it. Of course, I knew that - but just wanted to support the guys that run Crackberry.

 The Zen of BlackBerry Dec 31, 2008
This book is a "must have" for all BlackBerry (CrackBerry) users, and one of the funniest books I have read in a long time. If you have panicked after realizing that your BlackBerry is not at your side, or if you frequently check your BlackBerry in public, at dinner, in the car, or in bed, this book is for you.
Through funny real-life stories and a 12-step BlackBerry addict program theme, you will learn why BlackBerry smartphones are more addictive than other smartphones, how this addiction changes our behavior in weird and crazy ways, and how to keep it under control (if you want to).
After reading this book, you will love your BlackBerry even more, but with a healthier mindset - think of it as the Zen of BlackBerry.

Every Crack(berry)head should read this book Dec 26, 2008
My name is Josh, and I am a Crackberry Addict. I realized I was an addict, literally, within 24 hours of getting my Blackberry as a Christmas gift last year (2007.) This year, I received this book as a Christmas gift to supplement my addiction and help me learn to cope and, so far, it has absolutely done the job.
If you're an addict, have a family member who's an addict, have a friend who's an addict, etc you NEED to buy this book. It should be on your Amazon Wishlist with priority set to "HIGHEST."
It's funny, insightful and VERY useful. Tongue in cheek and serious all at the same time it is an absolute MUST BUY/MUST READ for anybody who's every even associated with somebody who owns and uses a Blackberry.
Stop wasting time and order it. NOW.
You won't regret it.

I can't believe how much I learned about myself while reading this book. Dec 12, 2008
WOW! What an eye opener this book is. I read the "Chart of Shame" to my family and they said "that's Granny" to almost every one of them. I was even guilty of checking messages at Church. Since I am Sue, who wrote about the car accident in the book, I realized after reading it that I need to change my priorities. This book is funny, it makes you see yourself the way others do and yet doesn't take away the joy of being a Crackberry Addict. If you or someone you know has a Blackberry, the book is a must read. I had someone ask for help in writing a term paper on Blackberry users and I told him the one thing he needed was this book.
