New Survey Says Brits Have No Mobile Manners

Pocket-Lint has a short article on a survey that says the British are a little more inconsiderate when using mobile devices. It also gives a list of things to do to be a nicer mobile user. I wonder how this compares to other countries, like the US, and Canada.

According to a survey released today, us Brits are inconsiderate when it comes to using mobile phones, laptops and PDAs.

The Mobile Manners Survey, commissioned by T-Mobile and undertaken by YouGov, reveals that 62% of British workers are the victims of colleagues’ bad ‘mobile habits’, such as answering mobile phones, sending text messages, or using laptops and mobile devices during meetings.

According to the survey two-thirds (62%) of UK workers have poor mobile etiquette and don’t consider the effect their mobile manners have on colleagues.

61% admit to practising bad mobile manners such as leaving phones switched on and answering calls in meetings.
