At MWC and CES this year your writers had a reputation for being obnoxious. At MWC, they sat in the press room, disrupted journalists trying to work and flaunted their freebies (Nexus 7s, 10s) and discussed how much they'd get for them on eBay. How do you feel that your staff behave so unprofessionally and are so universally disliked? And it wasn't a jealousy thing, as BBC staff at both were courteous and well-liked.

Thanks for replying. You employ the likes of Myriam Joire et al, right? And she's not the type of person who is easy to mistake for someone else. Besides, the ID badges are a dead giveaway. There were four of them sat together, loudly talking about eBaying the swag Google had given them, so perhaps they weren't review units, but 'gifts'. Nonetheless, very arrogant and unprofessional - especially in a place where journalists are queuing up to get a desk and file copy.

As for CES - this is true, but everyone leaves the trailer at some point.

Will do. As a side note, having read this whole AMA, you seem like a really cool, stand-up guy. No sarcasm.
