You must be referring to my Iconia's mobile drives....:-)

The HTC Thunderbolt is anything but one of the best gadgets of the year. 3 hour battery life? For a smartphone? That is what is expected from a laptop, not a phone. You rip Lenovo as their X1 laptop gets only 4 hours on battery, yet say nothing about a phone that lasts 3 hours? Can you say biased!

Verizon's LTE runs circles around HSPA+? I'll take a consistant average of 4.5 mb/s up to 10 mb/s almost everywhere I go on my Inspire on AT&T over 12 mb/s in some select spots and then Verizon's ancient slow 3G which runs at less than 1 mb/s.

The XPS 15z has one of the worst touchpads that I have ever encountered, to the point where it is almost useless. Among the many problems documented on Dell's user forum are:
1. Inability to turn off the touchpad when a mouse is attached
2. Inconsistency of the multi-finger gestures
3. Lack of support of continuous scrolling, particularly a problem given the lack of dedicated PgUp/PgDn/Home/End keys. I think that Dell should have disclosed in the product description that the 15z does not have continuous scrolling, as it is something that most of us take for granted
4. Lack of any horizontal scrolling, and inconsistency of vertical scrolling in terms of amount of pressure one has to exert.
5. Random movements of the cursor by itself.
6. Periodically, the left button or the right button will require multiple clicks in order for just one click to be executed.
This is after multiple drivers, some of which seemed to make things worse than previous one.
I used to be a loyal Dell customer--no more!
