----- Well *you* can define it however you wish but every majors review site is calling it a phablet.

If only because Samsung mistakenly coopted the term for a

Alan Baker
Sorry, but you appear to be saying that you get to decide what Samsung calls its products...

Harry Mudd the Anti-Fanboy
no, but I do get to >reject< them as phablets....

Alan Baker
No, Fanboy. You don't.

Harry Mudd the Anti-Fanboy
Actually, I do. It's *my* money and I can vote against them and reject them as phablets by not spending it on one of your tablet phones....

Alan Baker
No, Fanboy: you don't get to define what terms in common usage mean.

Harry Mudd the Anti-Fanboy
And dhow me ONE time where Apple refers to an ipad mini w/a VOIP app as a 'phablet'. Betchya can't....

Alan Baker
And now you've switched to another dodge.

You not BUYING something is not rejecting them AS phablets.

Harry Mudd the Anti-Fanboy
Yes it is.....

Not a dodge. You're evasion in asnswering my challenge is the actual dodge. This whole thing about what constitutes a phablet arose over you and KDT stubbornly constantly conflating phones with phablets.

Alan Baker
No, actually. It came from YOU claiming that all phablets could fit in pants pockets and the post declaring that any phablet that didn't wasn't a "true phablet".

Well, did you or did you not claim that?

Harry Mudd the Anti-Fanboy
So therefore, I CHALLENGE you to provide a cite where Apple refers to an iPad mini w/a voip as a 'phablet' (or even specifically as a 'phone').

Alan Baker
I never claimed the iPad is a phablet.

Harry Mudd the Anti-Fanboy
but you're defending it as a valid exception that qualifies it as a phablet.

Alan Baker
No. I've not even mentioned the iPad.

Harry Mudd the Anti-Fanboy
yes you did. You're lying, shill.

Alan Baker
And yet the quote is strangely lacking...

Harry Mudd the Anti-Fanboy
This was what KDT specifically claimed and you chimed in in agreement way back a few threads ago.

Alan Baker
Really?

Quote me.

Harry Mudd the Anti-Fanboy
Why do I always have to provide *you* refreshers on what *you* said....Mr. Alan-heimers.

Alan Baker
When have you ever actually produced a quote?

Nope, and I'm not going to provide one for what you know well you said....

Harry Mudd the Anti-Fanboy
Back up your assertion. or consider your petulance utterly destroyed...

Alan Baker
Back up your claim I ever said a single thing in this thread about the iPad...

Harry Mudd the Anti-Fanboy
"In this thread"? So that's your dodge! I'm talking a greater context which included previous discussions of this in preior threads... and no, I'm not going to waste my time digging them up just to satisfy your petulance.

Alan Baker
OOOOOHHHH. The greater context.

Alright... ...quote me from ANY thread claiming the iPad is a phablet.

Harry Mudd the Anti-Fanboy
What? Got no hair on yer balls? Try plucking a few from your asshole, Anal, and gluing them on yer nuts...

Alan Baker
And we've gone in to full dodge mode!

Harry Mudd the Anti-Fanboy
blah, blah, no true scotsman...blah, blah...'dodge' this, 'dodge 'that...blah, blah, blah...

Alan Baker
Face it: you lost a long time ago.

I'm just having fun with you now.

Harry Mudd the Anti-Fanboy
Hope you're having 'fun' wriggling around trying to weasle out of whatt you said previously.

Alan Baker
LOL

And yet you won't PRODUCE what I said, will you?
