Warning given over techno addicts

A growing number of people are becoming addicted to their mobile phones, Blackberries and other digital devices, researchers are warning. Techno addiction can become so bad that people wake up several times a night to check their emails and text messages.

It can even interfere with an addict’s job as he feels he has to be linked up all the time, says Professor Nada Kakabadse of Northampton University. She is conducting research into how widespread the addiction may be.
