I do, I do. I hate wide-screen devices.

I've read a lot of PDN screen bashing but I have never had a problem with it. I think that reading and light web surfing on its screen is fine. Response times for finger swipes and keyboard reaction is acceptable by my standards.

Go ahead and spend mega-bucks to get marginally better results. I'll save that US $120 to $500 and just wait the extra 7-8 seconds for each web page to load.

When I want to watch video, I settle down in front of my 55" HDTV. I don't give a ..... about video on a portable device.

I stand behind my feelings about blanket statements.
