Many may not care about this, but I find it highly annoying that you can't use a good portion of your screen, around all the borders.

If it's not sensitive, then how come i have no problems pressing my soft keys, start menu, and x button without any problems (i can press them with my fingernail or thumb every single time no matter how close to the edge). And when i press the "a" button on my soft keyboard along the edges, it also acknowledges the press every time. How would you explain my scroll bar? If I can drag the scroll bar (which sits on this so-called restricted area) up and down with no problems, your theory about sensitivity crumbles. Oh, and if i can drag my web pages to and from the very edges, there clearly is no problem.

If you use the notes application all day long, i may see why it bothers you; but otherwise, you are just being picky
In any case, the pro wasn't right for you, so you're better off and i wish you luck in your search.

edit: wait a minute, did you say 1/2 inch gap??? Didn't even catch that. Has to be a typo right? It's more like 1/10 of an inch on my phones. It's closer if i use my nail (which id be using when using that program). It's kind of all inconsequential to me anyway, as i stated above, since everywhere else the edges work perfectly.
