Sure, all the time. Sometimes it just doesn't add anything interesting. Sometimes it's just too big of an idea to explain in a couple paragraphs. Sometimes I'm just not not sure my opinion is well informed enough to commit to the Internet f

I just don't see the appeal of a slab style tablet. It's awkward to handle and has to be docked to use on a desk. Even using one sitting in a chair can be difficult unless you put a leg up and use it as a stand. A dual touchscreen device (f
