Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!
I'm still waiting for my cell phone/PDA/GPS/web browser/email/digital music player/digital camera thingie....
I'm not kidding when I say that I want George Jetson's car that folds up into a briefcase. That's what I need next decade: all my crap to fold up into a petite package.
Ten minutes after that happens, I'll lose it. I'll need an allmycrap locator chip embedded under my flesh.
I wish my brain had wifi.
That would rock. Turn by turn directions...inside my head.
Without all the messy cables hanging out of your head. Because I hate that.
In related news, I just read a thing about how the FAA has approved United's request to implement WiFi on flights.
If I get internet access in my head, it had better come with one hell of a popup/ad/spam blocker. I don't want to be walking down the street checking my email and suddenly see EN1lIARGE Y0UR P^E^N^IS 1N A WEEK||1lIY! in ten-foot flashing letters.
In a world where I sometimes need to reboot my phone, WiFi can stay the hell away from my brain.
I find that scheduled downtime every 24 hours takes care of most of my need for reboots.

My hardware needs to be disconnected from a power source to have the best chance at a clean restart. I'm not down for that myself.
