Why not a recall??

There might be a possibility that the blue update will come with an option to start at the desktop, but there are already ways to do that within windows 8 without additional software.

About the start button, well it's still there but it leads you to the metro menu... no idea if the blue update will do anything about that...

What would you call this?
Not a design fault but a feature... sounds like Apple :p

Similarly the Canon 70-200 fails for a couple of different reasons, but jammed zoom rings are common and caused by a tooth breaking on the nylon ‘reversing’ gear under the zoom ring.



Here a bit about the Canon 24-70 f/2.8 wear and tear

There is sadly always something :(

According to lens rental all the fast zooms have reliability problems, they all run into 10+% annual defect rate 20+% even for some (Sony...).

Probably the cost of repairing the ones that broke and lost in sale and negativity is probably less then recalling all lenses and upgrading them.

The slow focus is very different thing all together, just look at the focus throw of your DA*50-135 and compare it with the kit lenses, there is a huge difference there.
