Cellphones: Better Than Your Spouse and/or Alcohol
Two new surveys on cellphone use show that Americans love their handsets, possibly to the detriment of their spouses and social lives.
According to a survey of 645 U.S. women commissioned by shoe retailer Zappos.com and payment service Bill Me Later, 31 percent of respondents ranked their phone or PDA as “most important” in managing their work and home lives, ahead of their significant other and hired help.
One reason is that it helps them bridge professional and personal responsibilities.
