Yes. A $400 big mac. A $400 big mac that comes in a box saying it can do things that it practically can't. Even when compared to larger or equivalent devices in the same price range!

The hecklers will say "Well then why did you buy it?!"

The answer to that is: Because I never buy something with the goal of being disappointed. The mere suggestion of that is kind of absurd. I simply have reasonable standards of responsiveness that most here don't.

I can't believe the culture of mediocrity everybody here forces on themselves.

There's a gigantic difference between doing something and doing something in a practical and useful way. This is called suitability for purpose, something the N810 by box definition and sheer price alone cannot fulfill.

Eat your mud, but don't get so upset because I don't want to eat it too. Nobody here has grounds to say I'm wrong - at all. $400 tempered by marketing says I decide the expectations, not you.
