...they freeze and crash, overheat, cause battery-phobia, wear out faster than a laptop, have massive compatibility problems
If this really is your tablet experience, then you need to buy a better quality tablet. As for your pronouncement that tablets are a fad close to extinction, I'm sure that is as accurate as most analyst predictions available on the internet today.
It's not just about faster. Smaller, more efficient, easier to transport are all good reasons to upgrade if you have the means. Beside, the grim reaper of hardware is always clawing at your door. Nice box you have there, I'd hate for something like a busted water pipe or lightning strike to carry it to the other side.

Know what that says?
It says whatever government lawyers say it means, assuming you ever get standing to sue the government.
It certainly seems to happen more often than one a week. The wife of a guy I work with leaves her Window laptop in sleep mode at night and it will wake up on its own at 3AM to update, flooding the bedroom with light from the screen. I suppose that feature is this one http://support.microsoft.com/kb/979878. Fun with Windows.
I'm saying it as a statement of well documented fact. Facts are always a good place to start a discussion. I don't see why you find that controversial.
This other confidence inspiring gem FTA stuck out:
"There are few reliable sources for this, a comment in the Korea Times here, an unnamed supply chain sources there, but the general opinion is that..."
AT&T's statement sounds like they are setting up a law suit to prevent Google from supplying what they have so far refused to supply. I can see their lawyers saying "We did not get the EXACT same deal, so it's unfair and must be stopped. Our client can't go forward with investments until the matter is settled." Once it's "settled" there is no reason to invest.

This is good news for Microsoft. Windows 8 is great and the problem is people just don't realize it. Stay the course Captain Ballmer!
Noble Sandwich Co (formerly The Noble Pig) in Austin does a fantastic smoked duck pastrami with Russian dressing and pickles. Delicious.

I don't see EA on that list. No anal-probe industry is complete without the kind hand of Electronic Arts.
It also has a username similar to an existing one, drinkypoo (153816). Suspicious.

Why would you want to uninstall this Blue Screen of Defense security patch? Nothing is more secure than a non-functioning system.

The blame must lay with the originator, in this case Apple.
From the article: "The lawsuit was filed by Motorola in January last year..."
It's only one page, and does not take long to read.

Once again, the conservative, sandwich-heavy portfolio pays off for the hungry investor.
