This is the way. The technology isn't the problem, the problem is that we've been trained to respond to smartphones like Pavlov's dogs - conditioned to respond to every noise it makes and eat up all the content it will show us. I treat my phone like email - check and respond to messages at my leisure, and unless I'm expecting a call from someone I usually let it go to voicemail.
