GADGETS AIN'T A MAN'S DOMINION![FOR THE LAST TIME!!!!]

I meant to blog about this a few days later but I just couldn't wait after seeing a particular article in a popular morning daily. It was an article about the need-to-knows about gadgets in the sci-tech section which I always read, being a self confessed geek. While I got to know several things in the article and already knew several too, I almost tore the paper in rage on reading one of the points. It said that android phones and tabs are for MEN only!Yeah, like that, in all caps! I can't wait to get my hands on the collar of that asshole called M. Gupta who wrote the bloody article..couldn't he just have stuck to what he is paid to write? Does every sentence written on gadgets have to show a biased viewpoint ? Who the hell said that women can't handle gadgets? They have been doing so from time immemorial. I would advise the writer to travel by train in the women's compartment and see the no. of women having high end smartphones and then decide for himself. There are millions of female geeks and gadgets are not a male dominion at all. In fact I know many men who don't even give a damn about what phone they carry, forget knowing that android 3.0 i.e. honeycomb is the latest OS in the market for Tabs and 2.3 (Gingerbread) is for phones. This is not to say that men don't know gadgets well, but to just highlight my point that women are just as proficient, and in some cases more proficient in them. So Just stop saying that women can't tell an android phone from a robot!!!
