Fifth of iPhone users watching porn
Quarter have left physical partner over mobile use
Regcast training : Hyper-V 3.0, VM high availability and disaster recovery
Shopping site Retrevo has been talking to iPhone users and has discovered that they prefer cool gadgets to degrees, but still consider themselves intellectual.
The "study" involved polling 445 iPhone and Blackberry users about their relationships with other people and their kit, and discovered that iPhone users consider themselves to be extrovert intellectuals who know a lot about the media but find a lack of high-tech gadgets to be a turn off.
35 per cent of iPhone owners said they would find a partner with out-of-date electronics a turn off, though a quarter have dumped someone who was spending too much time playing with their phone.
33 per cent of those with an iPhone have used a text message or e-mail to break up with a partner - which is harsh, though nothing beats fax for that sharing-the-pain experience. When it comes to good news electronics are, apparently, out: none of those polled would propose marriage by text or e-mail.
When not dating, 20 per cent of iPhone users admitted to frequently watching adult material on their 3.5-inch screen, and more than 60 per cent consider themselves to be extrovert.

Iphone users
I can't speak for Blackberry users, they're a weirdly focused managerial subset but for an iPhone user, iPorn is watching Steve give keynote speeches or online trailers for new Mac technology. There's nothing dirty about it, at least not in terms the rest of us are comfortable with.
A much more interesting question would have been "have you had sex with your phone?"
What? It would!
Explanation
The reason for the low porn number? @&T's dodgy 3G, of course!
Wait a minute, what?
Who said anybody here had a problem with the idea of masturbation? We're *technical people*, for God's sake! No, it's a completely *different* set of unsavory habits, not suitable for public indulgence, that we're getting onto iPhone owners about. Do *try* to keep up, won't you?
