Looked at from a different light, if we had more things like this, on by default, it could force ISPs to remove their caps, or at least raise them significantly. I'd really like to know if the current caps, low as they are, are there f

I'm genuinely curious as to the thought process of having that many tabs open. I often feel like I'm missing something when I see people doing it. Is is the muscle memory of knowing where each tab is? If so, how does that work

Great, those were precisely my top 2 gripes with the Nexus 4 and I was hopeful they received enough complaints about it to rectify it, but I guess not. Too bad I already ordered the 5, but if its as bad as you say, I may have to sell it and
