Crisis... why are they making it so difficult to NOT getting a new Android phone...

Its kind of double edged.

The deeper you dig the hole, the easier it will be to dig even more, and the harder it will be to try and get out.

I hope that Microsoft are watching- a cohesive approach is the only way that Windows Phone will go places...

I find it funny how the guy pauses and then kind of waits for an applause and then there's a half-hearted applause from the crowd

No mic on the audience.

Wow.. they weren't lying when they said Larry had a voice issue...

 

[Pooky]

Ah Larry Page

Page announced on his Google+ profile in May 2013 that his right vocal cord is paralyzed from a cold that he contracted the previous summer, while his left cord was paralyzed in 1999.[37] Page explained that he has been suffering from a vocal cord issue for fourteen years and, as of his May 2013 post, doctors were still unable to identify the exact cause of the problem. The Google+ post also revealed that Page had donated a considerable sum of money to a vocal cord nerve function research program at the Voice Health Institute in Boston, U.S—an anonymous source has stated that the donation exceeds US$20 million.[38]
