The world just wasn't ready for its first gay CPU
A new keyboard, please.

And no regrets. The S2 is amazing.
16GB to the HTC Sensation's 8GB
Removable battery
Huge screen, but very thin and significantly (i.e. very noticeably) lighter than other, smaller androids and any iPhone
Side-by-side with an iPhone 4, the iPhone screen is pitiable. Owner of said iPhone is now quite de-smugged.
As an aside, it's a joy to have the freedom to mess around writing apps for my phone (even ON my phone in a choice of languages!!!11) without being tied to a type of host computer.
I overheard in Phones4u that 40% of all their sales are S2s at the moment.
The only way I prefer the iPhone is the keyboard, and that may just be because I'm accustomed to it. When it was new, I was mis-typing everything.
And here's something else. On the basis of this phone, I'd whole-heartedly recommend a Samsung Galaxy Tab over an iPad. And that's a significant internal shift on my part, I can tell you!
Well done Samsung.
Where it says "And here you can see how the speed of file transfer increases substantially when two of the copy jobs are paused"
it shows 2 of 3 copy operations paused and whilst the remaining job is now copying 4x faster, it is showing the same 2m30s remaining despite having 200MB less remaining to be copied in that operation.
Nothing makes my blood boil on a daily basis quite like the school run of parents driving their kids to school. It's wrong on so many levels: expense, pollution, congestion, fear reinforcement, weakening and fattening the children. Killing with kindness.
Kick the kids out of the door, keep them off the internet and they'll be 10x safer from dangerous predators (who're all online). They'll integrate into society, get social skills (as opposed to social media skills), get fresh air and exercise, and perhaps give us some hope for the future.
If you take the rule of thumb that all mammalian species have the same amount of heartbeats - such that mice and whales heartbeats average out to be the same count over their respective lifetimes - then coffee drinkers are burning the candle at both ends.
There was thing thing once called the Road Fund Tax, and everyone who wished to drive on the public roads would pay according to the size of their vehicle.
Now, new cars don't necessarily pay anything and they're subsidised by drivers like me who has an old, proven car which gives off a very small fraction more emissions. I hate you tax-dodging bastards, one and all.
