I read this headline and thought Wow, that isn’t very many.

    Ha ha. I thought the exact same thing. I think they should have spelled out “two” and it would have made more sense. :)

  2. I get confused by headlines all the time and end up having to read the first paragraph to understand. I was confused too!

    OMG me too….It doesnt sound right at all, hee heee so its not just you…

  4. Dustin says:

    Did the same thing. “Gee, is the economy *really* that bad?”

    Headline-writing was the most painful part of my blessedly short-lived high school journalism career!

  7. took me 5 minutes to figure this out… LOL

    if it makes you feel better it took me about a full minute to put it all together — two TYPES of phones with the google crap in them. Imma dork.

  9. Lisa says:

    Hahaa…I’m with Wendy…it seriously took me a good minute to figure out TWO types. Eh, I don’t keep up on technology.

    yea. Lets blame it on that!

    I had to read that three times before it clicked. I think that counts as a typo on their part, not idiocy on ours. I hope.

    Looks like the headline writer was pressed for space. :)

    I was sitting here wondering why it was weird that you thought that wasn’t very many. I mean, TWO! That’s not very many at all. Then I figured it out.

    We can be slow together.

  13. You funny.

  14. Brillig says:

    Okay, I had to read that a few times to understand. Too funny.

    Isn’t it amazing what turn of events can take place? Appreciate you letting your readers know about this.

    Nobody knows how to right a proper headline these days… but then again it did suck me into reading it. What do I know.

  17. :)

    I feel like a complete idiot, I had to look at the comments to understand what was going on. Maybe I’ll blame it on the “cluster headaches” I’m currently experiencing. Yeah – that sounds much better then I’m a complete moron.

    Man they better be pretty good phones then………..
    (snark)

    Ha! Well they might not be too far off, Sarah! All the pundits seem to think they will sell a lot of these phones — the same pundits thought the iPhone would sink without a trace. So I’m gonna go with your instincts here!
