For the benefit of the readers here, I will respond here. I do not wish this to become a habit since this is not the appropriate place to discuss personal accusations and attacks by individuals. As for his comment, it's unwarranted, irrelevant, and total speculation. It's irrelevant since I didn't write a review for the HTC Advantage anyway. Our review was written by Breley (http://mobilitysite.com/2007/10/review-of-htc-advantage-x7501-2/). Breley returned the unit to HTC himself. Later we had an HTC Advantage donated to the site by HTC for a giveaway in which Wesley Tremblay from Canada (http://mobilitysite.com/2007/12/5th-birthday-contest-htc-advantage-winner/) won. In fact he's still waiting for delivery, see my personal blog for this fiasco. This person is speculating that I wouldn't buy a device just to have. I do it all the time. I buy devices just to video and give away in contests. I keep some of them too. I have an iPhone that sits in my bathroom to replace my magazines and newspapers. Since you have pointed me to this post I found another post that was made there accusing me falsely of another thing. He has a claim that I redesigned Tiltsite.com by copying his blog's look. This is completely false. Tiltsite's look was changed on 12/14/07. (http://tiltsite.com/2007/12/tilt-site-get-a-facelift) The claim on that blog was that I changed it 4 days ago. I am not sure why this person cares, but it's cool. I do not wish to engage in debate on this subject here. I will not discuss this accusation or the accuser here publicly. If anyone wishes to discuss it, you are welcome to email me. Thanks for bringing that to my attention Shawn. For the benefit of the readers here, I will respond here.
