“Goldman Sachs,
for example, saw laptop usage on the
|
|
|
network (via
dial-up) drop by 45%, with 19% of users
|
|
|
giving up their
laptop altogether when issued with a
|
|
|
BlackBerry. It
was also calculated that the total cost of
|
|
|
ownership for
the handheld was one fifth of the laptop
|
|
|
($2,000 per user
per year versus $9,700).” -Quocirca
|
|
|
“Somewhat
counterintuitively, the ‘power users’ in the
|
|
|
sample group
decreased their laptop use by a
|
|
|
momentous 70
percent.” -ZDnet
