Just picking up on the sentiment in this thread:

I'm IT qualified, so I know what you mean - but maybe that's why I feel I can push the rules ... !
Anyway, FWIW, an argument in my favour is that with my new BB I can work while commuting, while watching TV in the evening etc. - it's not called a Crackberry for nothing!
Given that the BB allows / encourages me to work in my my own time, this could be the basis of an argument to say that it's not unreasonable to allow me to do some personal email on the device. Did no-one here ever browse the web from their desktop computer at work?
