Jason claims that he "doesn't know anyone who owns a smartphone"... I'm sceptical: I take an interest in phones, but I have absolutely NO IDEA what hardware responds to a majority of the phone numbers in my address book - and I'd be surprised (no, make that ASTONISHED!) if Jason is claiming that he DOES know. By people I know, I meant people I'd actually met (rather than contacts or associates I might occasionally have phoned). But I also pretty much agreed with you: if the point comes when these devices are more widespread (and it's entirely possible they're more widespread than I realise), MM might well be a good place to cover them. (Paragraphs, please, paragraphs!)

I suspect that's because they believe the 945 graphics driver is as bug-free and optimised as it's likely to get -- nothing more than that. I have no doubt that if a major issue arises in the future the company will offer a fix.

I'm sure your right. It's the minor niggling bugs that are the pain for most though.
