6+ inch tablet?
not big enough..
I thought that as far as boom boxes went back in the day...
this one wasn't big enough...
But in retrospect now... I believe the car-dash-box was big enough to help initiate the crash of such a ludicrous fad...showing the absurdity of the fad ...
Once we have cracked the 12" smartphone ceiling ...
It'll only be a matter of time before the concept goes the way of the dodo.
Just like the monster (underpowered) home stereo systems of the 70's ..
Absurdity is a great thing...
a great leveler...
I can't wait for the next biggest smartphone to come out...
see what absurd tipping point it takes...
I mean ...
look at 70's....
It took "Disco Duck" to finally put the nail in Disco's coffin...
That was a mighty absurd song....
But with tech...
Bigger is better....
says..."Hey ..look at me...look at the size!..I must be someone important with important things to say!..I'm somebody!"
Tech absurdly too small is just the same ego ...in reverse frankly...
Damn...
I spoke too soon...
the end of the era of supersized smartphones is nigh my friends...
(bout time too)

I love my n900's...
but I love my n8x0's with the 4.3 inch screen real estate better...
4.whatever is the sweetspot I think...
not too big ..
not too small...
but that is my mad opinion...
