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

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 show me ONE time where Apple refers to an ipad mini w/a VOIP app as a 'phablet'. Betchya can't....

well?

Alan Baker
Well what?

It's a straw man.

I've never claimed the iPad is a phablet.

Harry Mudd the Anti-Fanboy
You're dodging now... :-D

Alan Baker
Nope.

I have never claimed that I think the iPad is a phablet.

But you did claim there was no difference between an iPad with a VOIP app (ala skype) and a phone and both you and karl kept goal post moving by conflating ipads with voip apps as phablets...

-- my favorite company is *anybody* BUT >Apple<!
