Huh. Super-laggy notification tray. Not good.

When are Engadget editors going to wake up and write a Dummies book about something we really need, like the art of yam cultivation?

If I were a Sidekick user, I would be absolutely livid right now. Probably the only thing that would keep me from marching on the headquarters of anyone involved in this fiasco with a pitchfork and a torch would be a thousand pounds of gold. For reals.

It's ridiculous that a corporation like HTC tries to obfuscate the reasons for including a resistive screen with the oft-repeated accuracy rationalization, as if they're using a clearly inferior technology (within the context of Android OS) for our benefit rather than for the benefit of their bottom line, which it clearly is, of course. Why patronize the consumers with bumbling excuses?
