There, fixed it for you.
No I'm not an Android fan, I'm not even a Microsoft hater. but having played with both Android and Windows phone I'd rather have the "mess" than all the restrictiveness.

Re: no acer iconia w700?
Maybe it's not in because the review is for 10" tablets and by your own post you acknowledge that the w700 is 11.6"?
Maybe that's why people also gave you thumbs down? But that is just speculation on my part
Ermmmm
"This is further erosion of profitability of our Microsoft business which is taking an unending journey to zero margin."
If it's an "undending journey", does that mean they never actually reach zero margin?
I can't help but think of

Re: "Domestic cats"
"...and despite attempts to re-invigorate their interest in the live ones by putting them in a hamster ball"
What you put the cats in a hamster ball? Isn't that a squash? Do you have any fingers/skin/eyes left?
So what the author wants is ... ?
the only phone available to be an iPhone?
The only search engine to be Google?
The only online store to be Amazon?
What about diversity and choice?
No rear facing camera?
That's a deal breaker for me!
Yeah I had a TyTn, it ended life being thrown against a wall after i had recalibrated the screen for the umpteenth time inside an hour. I have no idea why but mine just would not seem to hold on to the screen alignment settings and would drive me crazy.
It made me swear I'd never buy another HTC device, which I broke with the Desire and regretted very quickly.
Re: Meanwhile, in the real world...
No it's the idea of self protection. Again as a former swim coach one of the things we learnt on our various courses was that ALWAYS have a chaperone when dealing with minors or even adults of the opposite sex. That way you always have a witness should someone decide to make malicious allegations.
I have to agree with this sentiment, having been a former swim coach, admittedly to adults only, but I still had a cheap PAYG phone I used to contact any club members. Likewise I now have a work mobile as well as a personal. The work one has no personal contacts on it and vice versa. That way its extremely difficult to send a text that could land you in trouble to the wrong person

Re: "BRIC economies cannot generate money"
If the BRIC countries and other D&E economies cannot generate money then how come so many of the large FMCGs are looking to them for revenue growth?

That'd be me then.
Re: A word of caution
Really? twice a day? I often get 2 days use out of my Note - maybe about 30 mins of calls a day, reading about 40 emails a day and replying to about half of them, an hour or so of web browsing, an hour of ebooks and about 3 hours a day listening to music while at work.
If the battery is sitting below 40% of a morning, I find an hour's charge will keep it going for the next 24 hours at least.
Please explain your comment to me, for I am hard of Thinking.
Did it not work before Ice Cream Sandwich?

hmmmm
I have to say having used 2 HTC devices in the past (one still partially used) after 10 minutes I want to throw them at the wall - having to realign the touch screen every few minutes does that to you.
I am not an iphone lover but really do not like HTC.
yawn yawn
apart from adding more megapixels, there doesnt seem to be anything on offer that wasnt on offer 8 or so years ago on the DSC-F505V or the 707. Yes I know it's more compact but nothing much else is there.
