    You'd probably get more replies by losing that statement - if you can't be arsed why should we? Still, at least you're being honest.

    Not so much a product but I'd say I find product packaging annoying ... especially that brittle plastic, shred your hands whilst retreiving the contents, packaging.
    My only concern is should I hide my true identity? A costume maybe?

    scaryjim: 10" is just a little large to hold comfortably in one hand, which makes it a lot harder to tap, swipe and generally interact with.

    its only a one semester unit so it cant be too indepth, and hence simplicity is the key.

    Anything too complex would be a complete waste of time

    part of the project is to get peoples opinions too hence me asking

    lol ... no I think that's a solution
    My only concern is should I hide my true identity? A costume maybe?

    Actually, for most of the stuff on TV (ITV especially) these days that's probably not a bad idea.
    My only concern is should I hide my true identity? A costume maybe?
