riiiiiiiiiiight. Try sticking an iPad in your pocket..... ---- Try sticking the Note 8 into your pocket.

Alan Baker
Karl, didn't you hear:

The Note 8 isn't a "true phablet"!

:-)

Harry Mudd the Anti-Fanboy
It isn't. too damn big with a screen larger than 7"....

Alan Baker
Sorry, but your only source explicitly says that phablets can have screens larger than 7". That's what "typically" means: "most of the time, but not always".

Harry Mudd the Anti-Fanboy
Then it doesn't say it 'explicitly'. At best it is >implicit<, and even then I question it.

Alan Baker
"azure" doesn't say blue, but it does mean blue, explicitly.

Harry Mudd the Anti-Fanboy
Sorry, but there's no 'explicitness' of larger than 7" in "typically 5"-6.9"" If it were explicit, why would they even mention an upper boundary size limit in the first place?

Alan Baker
The explicitness is in the meaning of "typically": "usually, but NOT in every case".

Harry Mudd the Anti-Fanboy
Wrong. "Typically" is anything BUT 'explicit' and instead, vague and ambiguous, subject to variations/exceptions as in 'not in every case'.

Right "not in every case", but rather "typically. "not in every case" means "yes, in some cases".

"Typically" explicitly means that are exceptions to the rule stated...

...because if there were no exceptions, you wouldn't have to SAY "typically" in the first place.
