I'm pointing out that the tounge-in-cheek has no place in this post. They aren't tounge-in-cheek about other gadgets being used for purposes other than original. They're pretty damn excited. Yes, they put in effort to update us. Thanks guys, we appreciate that. Yet when a writer puts up a post dripping in snark, how are we supposed to react? Sarcasm translates poorly in written word, especially in short form.
Also, why did you reply to my comment? I'm not aiming a weapon; not screaming 'wtf is this'; not 'zomg i'm taking a break from engadget'. You scroll over articles you don't like, yet felt compelled to list them here. Mr. Up-yourself indeed.
