Now I’m convinced people are crazy:

In the last two days I have read several stories about how employers may now be liable and sued by employees who are addicted to their Blackberry. If people are going to be allowed to sue because they check their e-mail every two seconds this country is finished.

First a Blackberry is not the only instrument to check e-mail as I see people everyday texting and e-mailing on other devices from regular cell phones to Sidekicks. To sue over Blackberry means you will now have precedent to sue over everything including that laptop your carrying.

What’s next? Suing George Steinbrenner because the Yankees are so good that watching them has ruined your marriage. How about suing Sony over the Play Station?
