iPhone Outlook Email a Bad Thing?

Apple recently announced that they will be bringing Outlook email to the iPhone.  Half of me was saying, "It's about time!" - the other half of me was saying "Crap".  For years since the Treo 600 came out I have been hooked on email.  Email is one of the biggest stressors ever created.  In December my iPod and Phone died within a week of each other (My wife thinks I threw them both on the ground).   

So I reluctantly bought an iPhone.  I was hesitant mainly because it did not get my work email.  The first day with the iPhone I was going through withdrawl.  I felt like I did not know what what going on because I would not see email.  Over the next week I felt a ton of freedom from not being attached to email.  So when Apple announced Exchange I was disappointed because that detachment from email is soon going away.  I am very picky about gadgets and phones and if my iPhone broke I would go drop $400 in a minute to replace it.  It is hands down the best phone/device I have ever owned.   

That is a reality of the world we live in today.  People have to learn how to balance technology and the stress it can create.  They are some of the greatest productivity and connectivity devices but the human race is not designed for this much stimulus.
