Yes, I did. I apologize for making it look like I was having a go at you. I did not intend that. To *everyone* in this thread The question about Pixel 6 was parenethetical. Its a phone. Thanks for that clarification. This thread is about the Pixel C. Is anyone else happy to still have...

I'm sad that when my Pixel C gives up the ghost, I will be thrashing about looking for an Android tablet. No, a phone won't do. Not enough screen space. I suppose I'll wind up with some Samsung tablet. It may be good enough for my wants . . .

Here's a thing. The power button is an on/off button. But the volume bar is an up/down button. It has at least two positions - "volume up" and "volume down". It may have a third position which is "press in the exact center". I had a play with grabbing a screenshot. My first attempt...
