Kit Eaton summarizes the new Mobile Workforce Report which finds that mobile workers (those using iPads, iPhones, or Androids) work on average an extra 240 hours a year compared to their static colleagues:

43% will keep their smartphone within reach while they sleep. These folk are 60% more likely to wake to check on their phones… Younger workers (aged 22-34) are the worst at this, with 77% keeping their phone in the bedroom, 60% within arm's reach.
