Last but not least: Young people are hooked on cell phones

Young people in the United Kingdom are addicted to cell phones. At least a quarter of all cell phone users under the age of 25 say they are «addicted,» according to the findings of a recent study by the London School of Economics and the cell phone retailer Carphone Warehouse.

Britain's young people are addicted to cell phones. At least a quarter of all cell phone users under the age of 25 claim to be "addicted", according to a recent study by the London School of Economics and mobile phone retailer Carphone Warehouse. Furthermore, no one in Europe sends as many text messages as the British. This is also confirmed by recent studies by the Universal McCann agency. The way in which users use their cell phones is also the most developed on the island. According to Pressetext, no other country in Europe uses high-tech functions as much as the UK. In the 25 to 30 age group, 20 percent still say they are addicted to their cell phones. The question now is when there will be 12-point plans for withdrawal from cell phone addiction and when the first clinics will offer expensive programs for the same purpose. At that point, we will certainly be able to see paparazzi photos of celebrities à la Lindsay Lohan and Keith Urban in the tabloids - as they attempt to overcome their addiction to cell phones by staying in a luxury rehab clinic.
