    I am when I am on the road. These tools mean that I can still work easily while on the run which is great for iPhone. iPad is great for extended trips as you get better visual for web etc. Cheers Michael

    OMG Yes. I have an Iphone 4 and it is always with me. I pay my bills on it, I check my email on it, I talk to all my family and friends on it. I use the GPS on it. I order pizza and have it delivered on it. I order things on ebay on it.

    It's like a mini-laptop. I love my Iphone 4!!!!

    I work for verizon and get a chance to try out everything!  I bought the original iPad before we started selling it, about 2 weeks after it came out.  I am definitely addicted to the iPad, don't really like the iPhone as much personally.

    I like droids more for phones because generally you get bigger screens, faster processors, similar or better cameras, removable memory cards, removable battery, free apps ( free music ), and the list goes on.  I am addicted to smartphones in general, not necessarily the iPhone.

    I am not yet, but believe I will be addicted to my newly purchased android Ipod touch by the weekend. I find there to be a less addiction with Iphones for me, than with the Ipod. Its a great electronic toy that should always be on your person. So many great apps to play around with besides downloading a great variety of music. Which is the main reason I purchased it in the first place over an iphone or smartphone.

    No, I don't have neither.  Although I have an smartphone, I do not have the email notification turned on.  I have to manually trigger the retrieval of email whenever I want to check email. 

    The constant notification of emails can habituate us to constantly check and result in addiction.

    I'm not addicted but I would say that I am very very fond of my iPad.  I use it all the time.  But I can go without for several days with no withdrawal.LOL

    Two years ago I bought an ipod, I was addicted to iPod, next year I bought an iPod 4, I was addicted to that! Didn't care for IPad 1, last summer got an iPad 2, woohooo.... Love it! So, convenient, flip it open anytime, everything's there! I hardly use my Laptops any more. Have an IPhone 4, but that's for 'on the go time'.... love both!

    No, I don't like Apple's paternal attitude.  So, I'm addicted to Android phones and tablets.

    Nope but there are a lot of people who are. Some kids are actually addicted to it and can't seem to stop themselves from using it 24/7. To know more about addiction rehabilitation, visit us at http://addiction-rehab-treatment.net/ad … recovery/.
