@der_jeff It's by way of a pun.

So yesterday I hacked the Windows Phone app on my MBA so it could work under Sierra. I applied exactly the same thing to the MBP just now and the fix didn't take.
No idea why not, it worked on the Air. So I copied the workable version of the app via Air Drop. It's all OK now.
@sumudu There's nothing new under the sun. Go back 20 years: that thing is clearly inspired by the Toshiba Libretto. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toshiba_Libretto

@sumudu I subscribe to NewAtlas (formerly Gizmag), they mentioned it last week. Fat fingers need not apply.

My current lockscreen.
It changes daily. Windows Phone lets you chose Bing Picture ofthe Day as the background image.
Was wondering what the yellow dot on the 1520's keyboard was. It's a very usable trackball.
@jws I've just held the iPhone SE's screen across that of the 1520. There's half an inch difference. That is, the 1520's screen is half an inch narrower than the HEIGHT of the iPhone's screen.

@jws An issue I have with the iPhone SE is accidental deletion of words containing the letter "m" because of that letter's proximity to the backspace key. I never struck that with the slightly wider Lumia 1020 or this even wider Lumia 1520.
I can easily bugger up typing my surname, which is Emery.
I tend to get quite abrasive about it.

@sumudu Only one. It can handle various widths, but not as wide as this beast. I have others but they're not wide enough either.
A good thing the Lumia 1520 is my spare/second phone: it's physically too big to fit in any of my various mobile phone brackets in the car. The law here says cellphones can only be used in a car if in a commercially available bracket/holder.
I'll go hunting for one tomorrow.
