These tetris games are addicting. I'm going to tell you about one right now. If you're of an addictive nature, SKIP THIS EMAIL. It is the best tetris game EVER. You can even play it competitivel online: JEWEL QUEST II. It was just released last week. You can test it out on www.iwin.com. It's only $9.99 this week. I play it all the time. Freepering and playing games...what a life! OK...go check it out!

I had the data services removed from my Sidekick for similar reasons.

It sounds like the old arcade game "Breakout".

Have it on mine and play occasionally. Hard to get past single digit levels so I get frustrated and stop playing. Much like my golf game. If I was better it could become addicting. But at my level it's just "a good walk spoiled".

Two pans; one full of peas, one empty; transfer peas, switch pans, repeat as needed...

I prefer instant messaging on a laptop during boring sessions....
trading jokes with friends in the room or watching via webmeeting - double points if you can get somebody to choke on his coffee
how did office drones ever keep busy before computers and networks?
To: Dreagon
My mom and dad (70's) got so addicted to this (Breakout) that they managed a "repetitive motion" ailment... LOL...
Myself, I stick to my addictions: Sherlock, Civilization, and Empire...
My daughter's addictions are Goldrunner, Enigma, and SuperTux.
There's a video game addiction for everyone... whether your soft spot is strategy and tactics, arcade, or logic...

My company hands these things out to employees for the asking. They are so annoying for voice service, that's about all you can do with the things is play games.
We've renamed them to 'CrackBerry'.

In my college days, we had the arcade version called Arkanoid.
To: Tolerance Sucks Rocks
The original game is called Arkanoid, a popular arcade game.
I guess this is why they call them "crackberrys"

To me the best puzzle game is, especially with 2 players:
Super Puzzle Fighter 2 Turbo, bar none.

Great... just one more thing to distract today's clueless "motorists".
These things are MUCH worse than the guy who might blow .08.
