Don't much care for Bonnie Cha's reviews. After doing more research, I found her very biased and her reviews are kinda fluffy. Can't think of the place I went to, but it was more like a Tom's Hardware place for phones. One gal totally went to great depths to test phones. She lived with them and abused them. Now a person who does that, you're gonna get a review.

I think Cha is more like those funky food critics who get so spoiled with awesome food that they end up losing their taste buds and start thinking a dessert of ice cream with a balsamic vinegar glaze is just a special treat. At that point, it's time to step back and clear your palate.

I think Cha needs to do this - step back. I also think she is probably reviewing for a special audience and we aren't that target audience. I only use CNET as a jumping off point, but for serious reviews, it's places like PPCGEEKS you need to go - and see how many REAL users are complaining. Did the same thing with my Lenovo T61. Still pretty partial to my Thinkpads....Poor thing gets abused by a 2 year old standing on the keyboard daily and still works wonderfully....
