Nothing new here except a hint that the emulator isn't as great as some
reports claimed. Perhaps this time around there will be more clarity about
what to expect particularly at the retail level. RT may have went better
if people were clearer on what it wasn't.

The 5G capability is interesting. I wonder how the devices will fit into
the ecosystem of Verizon and other carriers? I'm happy with my MiFi but
it takes some work to convince the drones at the typical Verizon store
that you only want a data plan with no associated phone as they try to
sell you the latest Samsung.
