DPreview is brand-agnostic though. ITT isn't; it is for and by ITT users.

I'd be very interested to know why this happens so often here on ITt. Is it entirely unique, or can you find it on Zaurus forums, or iPhone (spit!) forums?
It's not compulsory to read all the threads, you see, so it's only a matter of ignoring them if they offend someone's sensibility.

I've probably been one of the offenders, but I'll make sure to post those discussions only in the "Competitors" forum.
I also see the same thing in a forum for the LG Viewty phone. LG abandoned the users (there was never a single firmware update despite many bugs, nor did LG provide any useful support) and that forum is full of people wondering aloud about alternative products.
Regards,
Roger

I am glad eiffel used the words "LG abandoned the users", instead of writing "LG abandoned the customers". Eiffel, you expressed it precisely because LG's customer(s) are not the users, LG's customers are the telcos/carriers. Users wishes are down on the list of priorities below the telcos.
One of the things I love about the NiT is we are both the users and we are also the customers, and Nokia has our interests regarding tablets in mind (for now). I hope it stays this way but I am not optimistic.
Sorry for going off on a little tangent.
