“X lane MUST turn X” is, I believe, only used when there isn’t an overhanging structure to put a sign on. The “[arrow] only” sign hanging over a lane in preferred when there’s something to overhang from.
I think it’s also being phased out for that purpose, too. I’ve seen ’[arrow] [arrow] [arrow]" sets mounted along the side of a three-lane intersection.
and by ‘marketing budget,’ what is required is a ‘bribe executives in major national/regional carriers budget.’
HTC’s problem is that they’re not getting through major gatekeepers like Verizon and other sizeable carriers, or they’re not getting through fast enough.
Any expectation that a three year old machine, that is 3-6 cycles behind the newest iteration, should behave like a new machine in a very rapidly developing industry is, objectively, unrealistic.
