Every month I'm seeing more and more manufacturers developing what I call Phonlets. I guess the official term is "Phablet" but really how fluckin stupid does that sound??? Anyway most of these devices are 6 inches or bigger, even Nokia is rumored to have an 8 incher coming. Let's face it the smart phone is little more than a mobile entertainment device that can make calls and receive texts. That being the case people want and need a bigger screen. I would be perectly happy with a 10 to 12 inch screen though most would probably want something a little smaller. Here's were ASUS totally dropped the ball! Seems like they can barely even get the thing out in Europe and even though they are on version 3 they STILL don't have it available in the USA! They could have locked up this market but instead they will be an also ran bit player. At the end of the month Sprint (my carrier) is supposed to offer Windows phones so it looks like I'll go with that and a Surface tablet. I am DONE waiting for ASUS. Now of course as soon as I buy this they will bring PF to the USA.
