I do not think that is funny.

I wanted to know why and what for, not to have a pity party.  I do not 
need a $200 phone, since I do everything I want on my desktop and 
laptops.  Try getting a tablet or phone to include 3 TB of storage and 
able to print to 4 different printers at the same time.  So I do not 
need to pay out for such a phone when I need other things, like 24 inch 
monitor and a second 2 GB drive.

If the LO site is liked by a smartphone QR code, then people needs to 
make sure that the phones that can use these images can read the LO site 
well.  Not every one has a 7 or 10 inch display on a tablet phone.  It 
needs to be read by the smaller screens, like Blackberry phones.
