"So why'd they launch such a poor excuse for a communication device?"

@RT100: I started my first comment with "I like your analogy", grow some balls for god's sake.

@RT100: Easy there, guess I hit a nerve. Are the stars just given out randomly these days?

@elementary: Lol, you win ;)

@RT100: All that is an argument for a working mobile site, not more crapware.

@RT100: I like your analogy, but putting a wallpaper in an app is like packaging an apple in a packing crate. Not only overkill but entirely unnecessary.

@sid9221: "Imagine your mouse pad was a mouse, try running your hands over it, it not that bad ?"

@pixelsnader: Yes, I'm arguing against your original statement

@pjcard: OK, should have looked first, they don't look like long exposures!

@eyjafjallajökull: That guy should put some trousers on, you can see his jock strap in frame 5!

Sod the camera*, where can I get the dessert?

@moonshadowkati: Thank you :) I wonder if the same people moaned about stereo sound.

@pixelsnader: How do you work that out?

@brbot: Your eyepatch is in the post.

@shift123: Real fingers are patented.

@frigg: That link is broken, but upon fixing it the forum post it links to reads like an Apple press release. It's hardly a document to base an opinion on.
