hearing you talk about workplace transparency tempts me to look for a job in the private sector. In Gov, everything is seperate. You are in the office 8-5 and when you go home, you are expected to forget about work. If you do work, you aren't compensated and god forbid, you skim off some time during the 8-5.

I would really love to be able to have 5-6 hour days in the office and work from wherever during the other hours. My bb allows me to do that to some degree because my boss is cool, but its really frowned on.

And as for the BB being able to do the job of a laptop while still fitting in your pocket, I can see it happening in the next 10 years or so as nano technology becomes more available.
