Yep.
And Hans, I don't think anyone would put you in that category.
It's people like chorbox or charbox whatever his/her name who was ranting yesterday and flat out said they go around forums and try to dissuade people from buying anything Apple makes that offer nothing constructive.
Or the "if it glows it blows crowd" who do nothing but read text and hate anything not e-ink. If you're only interested in e-ink devices, stay in the forums for e-ink devices! Don't come troll here or in other backlit device forums.
You're criticisms of Flash etc. are perfectly relevant. I have the same criticism, as well as not being designed as a stylus device, not doing true multitasking etc.
This is the place to discuss the pros and cons of the device. It's not the place for people who hate apple and add nothing to the discussion, or who hate anything not e-ink (as it's not meant to be a dedicated reading device, but a multimedia tablet that does more than just read).
As kjk said in another the thread, the device forums should be for people who are INTERESTED in the device to talk about it's pros and cons. And Hans, you fall in that category so you're fine. People who hate Apple, hate anything not e-ink etc. shouldn't be trolling here, and mods should be dealing with it--and Kindle/Amazon haters in the Kindle forum etc.
Keep that crap in the News forum, Which One Should I Buy forum etc. Let the device forums be for discussions among owners of said device and people interested in said device.
