China's 'stealth fighter' flies – brown trouser time, or not?

arronzhang

have you thought about this?

That said, there is a possibility that China can build a steath aircraft nearly as good the the US one - be it F-22, F-35 and commission in 5 years time. Besides, how much does one of that cost? surely not 100 million dollars that no one can afford eough?

Three is voted the best UK network

are you kidding?

I would never use 3 again. I used it for a while a few years back just for its low price, but the coverage was so bad and when I finally decided to switch they tried so hard not to lose me, by making unnecessary charges twice and making trouble providing me with PAC code.

I don't believe they've changed from the worst to the best in such a shor time, or at all.

Can Windows Phone 7 help Microsoft come from behind?

What do the consumers say about Windows Phone 7?

It’s interesting to hear what an average consumer may think, or at least what their perception is as influenced by Micosoft’s marketing campaign. I used Toluna QuickSurveys to run a quick survey targeting 1000 respondents living in the US, here’s quick analysis of the result:

Things seem quite rosy for Microsoft this time, about 27% of the people heard about Windows Phone 7 and among them 27% has expressed their intention to buy one. Regarding the brand of choice, around 30% don’t care and for the rest, LG and Samsung are more popular choices than HTC and Dell, probably due to HTC’s strong positioning with Android and Dell’s relatively new entry into the market.

For what people may like about Windows Phone 7, lots of people seem to be swayed by the marketing campaign as 19% prefer its new functions and interface and close to 25% mentioned its positive review. An interesting point here, around 17% like it simply because it’s Microsoft. Finally, consumers seem quite optimistic about the launch with 49% believing it may help Microsoft regain some ground lost to its competitors.
