The blackberry includes internet so you can view and send emails in and out the office. For example if you were travelling to London by train to your office, you could view all your emails beforehand and read up as to what is going on and what you have to do and know for the day ahead. This saves time when you reach the office as you can start working striaght away. This is one of the many reasons why so many businesses now issue their employees with Blackberries to make them more efficent at work.
It also gives you 3 gadgets all in one:
- Your laptop to access your email, write up documents and research
- Your phone to contact colleagues, clients, bosses and also your family and friends
- Music. For the train journey to and from work.

Blackberry users 'work an extra 15 hours a week' out of the office
Staff with mobile technology such as Blackberries work an extra 15 hours a week as they constantly check emails even out of the office, according to new research.
A survey of over 600 employees revealed many were turning into workaholics because of the ability to receive and send messages and work online even when they were at home.
Employment law firm Peninsula said the working week was being extended to around 55 hours for many people and urged employers to make sure their staff were not breaching working time regulations
"Employees should be encouraged to take appropriate rest breaks if they do choose to continue working out of hours. Having a well rested employee with a good work/life balance is a lot more useful than a tired employee that put one too many hours in the night before."
