According to Australian media reports, the number of Australian BlackBerry users will double next year. Meanwhile, experts said that the addiction to high-tech products was very likely to have a negative impact on family relations and personal satisfaction would also decrease. This multi-functional business tool has been hailed as the "best tool" with all functions. Paul Osmond, regional president of BlackBerry maker Research In Motion, said Australia could be considered as the top market in Asia-Pacific region. Its market growth rate has far exceeded the average international market growth rate.
