You can disagree if you wish, but I am the moderator and list owner, 
so I get two votes and you just have one. (smile.)

There are other lists for access technology, digital talking books 
dtb-talk, etc., this list was and is intended for the discussion of 
appliances,home electronics and the like.  This does include cell 
phones, but stuff like the Stream is a stretch.

I am politely asking people to stop, if you don't or you feel 
compelled to argue with me then do so at your own risk.
