Defining story of the week? Uhm, probably the delivery of a batch of Asus Nexus 7s to lucky punters who pre-ordered from Ebuyer. Either that, or the now incessant rumours of imminent new hardware (be it tablet or smartphone-based) from Amazon, a popular online book retailer.
In the world of comments, Jan was mostly well behaved (from what I can remember), though we live in hope of another Donald Rumsfeld-flavoured rant. It's only a matter of time...
You all know the deal with the comment numbers and the brackets and the blah blah blah.
Have a sexy weekend.
