BlackBerry Thumb

BlackBerry Thumb, also known as Ninetendonitis or PlayStationitis is spreading throughout the Text Messaging community. The debilitating ailment is caused by repetitive thumb motions such as those used when sending emails on the QWERTY keyboards found on BlackBerry devices and cell phones. In most cases, you can start using mobile slang such as “cul8er” for “See you later” or “wsup” for “How are you doing today” to lessen the amount of typing that one must do. In the most serious cases, more drastic measures such as using the voice capabilities in your mobile device and not typing for a day or so while your thumb heals.
