    There was a study done to see how many people use their smartphone while watching television. In the US there are 40% who do so on a daily basis, compared to as 12% of tablet users and 13% of smartphone owners say they have never done so. 45% search unrelated info on the web, 42% are checking social networking sites, and fewer than 20% are searching related ads they've seen on TV.
