I think there's an important idea here: technology should enhance our lives, not run our lives. I've been pretty good at disconnecting over the years. I always keep my phone on silent, which helped get rid of "phantom vibrations" in my leg. I've been batting the idea around of taking this one step further: dropping my verizon wireless plan and switching my phone number to a VOIP service. I'm grandfathered into verizon's unlimited data plan, but they're increasing prices next month. Sure, I won't have service unless I'm on wifi, but it looks like a worthwhile experiment.
