| In a national survey commissioned by wireless location-based services company TeleNav, Inc., one-third of all respondents said they would be more willing to give up sex for a week than their mobile phone. Seventy percent of the people more willing to give up sex than their phone were women.
Fifty-five percent of all respondents would be more willing to give up caffeine for a week than their mobile phone; Sixty-three percent would be more willing to give up chocolate; and 70 percent would pass on alcohol. A shocking twenty percent would be more willing to go without shoes than their phone.
Smartphone users were also three times more likely to admit that they judge people based on the type of phone they carry and were twice as likely as regular phone users to give up hot showers, and forty percent of iPhone users in particular would rather give up their toothbrush for a week.
Would you rather give up sex than your phone? | |

| I wouldn't give up anything for fucking fone. People who know me are really surprised to find out I own a cell fone. It is in my bag turned off. I only have it to CALL PPL when I am away from my landline fone and I have not been seduced by all the aps of new electronics.
If I want to take a pic, I have a camera for that. If I want to know the time I have a watch for that. If I want to know anything else, I have a computer for that.
It is not necessary to be connected 24/7. I have survived half a century without it, and know what, it was fun being able to mysteriously go off the matrix. | |

| I'd go a week without sex to save my phone, but would I altogether give up sex for my phone? Of course not! | |

| 1/3 of Americans are nuts. I've gone longer without a phone than sex. I'd give up my phone, no doubt | |
