"Dede cautions that “we have neither sufficient confidence nor statistical relevance to bend this data into an official report.'"

Additionally, Dede's "analysis" was based on calling a dozen random Sprint stores to get some retail Sprint employee's opinions and "data" from a precentral poll. Her analysis has already been thrashed by a dozen other analyst firms.

Barron's is a well known financial news source and even though it says blog, it just seems to be an opinion piece with real company news.

And what do YOU suggest for a "fix"? Hmm? Probably to slap an Apple logo onto it? Make the battery non-removable?

Additionally, how can you criticize the foam strip if you dont even know if it improved the situation or not? Wait until you hear people saying "This piece of foam didn't work!!!" before you start bitching.]]>Aug 12th 2009 7:25PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/08/12/palm-quietly-improving-pre-build-quality-tweaking-hardware/http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/12/palm-quietly-improving-pre-build-quality-tweaking-hardware/Aug 12th 2009 7:28PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/08/12/palm-quietly-improving-pre-build-quality-tweaking-hardware/http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/12/palm-quietly-improving-pre-build-quality-tweaking-hardware/Aug 12th 2009 7:58PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/08/12/palm-quietly-improving-pre-build-quality-tweaking-hardware/http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/12/palm-quietly-improving-pre-build-quality-tweaking-hardware/http://www.engadget.com/2009/07/06/are-iphones-burning-up-in-the-infernos-of-processor-overtaxation/) that it will cause that foam piece's adhesive to lose it's tack and will shift- because we all know that the foam piece is heavy enough to shift under that situation, right? Hell, spit would hold that in place no problem- and all those moving parts... Who knows? Maybe it could shift, or loosen this "piece of hack job" because of all those moving parts, right? Oh...

My point is valid. Palm has been forced to fix a valid design failure. Rather than fix it properly, a fix has been publicly proven. A fix akin to using duct tape to hold up your GM built car from falling apart. Unlike unsubstantiated FUD, this Palm defect is valid, as well as the hack job implemented to supposedly fix the known issue.]]>Aug 13th 2009 12:58AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/08/12/palm-quietly-improving-pre-build-quality-tweaking-hardware/http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/12/palm-quietly-improving-pre-build-quality-tweaking-hardware/
My family owns many GM vehicles. My 1978 GMC K15, my brother's 2000 Pontiac Trans Am WS6, my dad's 1972 Buick Gran Sport, 1970 Buick Riviera, 1988 Corvette C4, 1994 Chevrolet Suburban, my mother's 2004 Chevrolet 2500 HD with the Duramax diesel, my uncle's 2005 GMC Denali XLT, and 1998 Corvette C5. Never had a single problem with any of those vehicles, aside from my truck simply because of the abuse I put it through, but even then, it's never required any major work to date (in the 6 years that I've owned it). How many GM vehicles have you owned or driven? I've driven all the ones I just listed off, and as I said before, not a single problem with any of them, and none of them are falling apart or have shown any signs of falling apart. Did you know that there are more American cars and trucks, GM in particular, to reach the 1,000,000 mile mark than any company from any other country? But that's another topic- one that you very foolishly brought up here and simply makes you look like a moron.

Care to destroy your credibility further? Well... That's a dumb question... You never had any to begin with.]]>Aug 13th 2009 2:54AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/08/12/palm-quietly-improving-pre-build-quality-tweaking-hardware/http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/12/palm-quietly-improving-pre-build-quality-tweaking-hardware/
LOL... Gosh your buttons are so easy to push... haha... rather than debate properly its easy to manipulate you into going off on a tangent (GM). Ahaha... ]]>Aug 13th 2009 10:50AM
