PERSONALIZED PHONE/COMPUTER
NOKIA should start a personalized store where you can design and construct your own device from the colors to the RAMs. Now that will be a cool thing.

So whether it will be Apple, Microsoft, or Open Source technology that will get us there... I really couldn't care less. Let's just make it happen!
It'll happen, of this I have no doubt. But I don't want it to happen in such a way that the end result is extremely restrictive and designed in ways centered entirely around what brings in the most money.

Although I made genuine errors, I'm impressed that someone paid attention enough to notice I had mistyped Rep. Anthony Weiner's last name. Also, now I have to wonder if this thread will show up somewhere in a Google search because Anthony Weiner's name is being mentioned repeatedly. heh

Some of us still want buttons. We want the tactile feel of something solid for some uses, something that should not wear out as fast as touchscreens tend to.
Of course, smart cell phone manufacturers will enable a peripheral ecosystem around their devices. Slide-on game controller sleeves for example.

No need to be redundant. i.e. Automated Teller Machine (ATM) machine or, the biggest mortal sin of all, Windows Phone 7 phone.

What I kept seeing throughout the video was the device being slow. Watch it again if you don't believe me: She touches it, and it takes a good second or two to respond. That's SLOW. If that's the concept, I don't want to see what the real device is.
Also, the other thing is that the fonts were all too big, and it didn't seem practical at all - Take the 'rental car' scene for example: The two women stuck the two devices together to get more screen space. Erm... a pinch gesture and some scrolling should have taken care of that in about.. .5 seconds. But instead, you use someone else's device to get more space. *sigh*.
I dunno... I refuse to give up my keyboard, and I don't *want* a toy device. I want a full computer in the palm of my hand, and all that entails. who *cares* if it looks "cool" or blends in?
My projects: BackupMenu - OS Backup & restore | Video: Flashing your n900(LiveCD)
My devices: N770 + 8GB SD card soldered internally, N900 with 8GB SD card + Custom OC(125-950 typically).
