I'm a barrister. I work stupid hours every week and, because I work in criminal law, the earnings are not the sort that most think of when they think of lawyers.

When do I find the time? Well, when I am sitting on a train, when I have twenty minutes in a lunch break when I would rather not think about serious stuff, when I have a bit of down time but not enough to do anything too involved.

That's when.

How is it "plain stupid" to choose a mobile device based upon its gaming and social networking functions? The great majority appear to choose one based upon just that. Facebook and Twitter and heavily posted from mobile devices. It is handy. It's a laugh. It's what peope do.

For games, I doubt they are a major factor but it's nice to have the option. Computers (and a MID that purports to be a computer in your pocket) have been used for games since the 80s. People expect it. That's fair. Of course it is.

Telling people to grow up just because you don't get it is childish. And you don't see the irony.
