Smartphones & PDA Phones
What would you improve about smartphones (cellphone, camera, PDA, MP3 combo devices), anything at all...?
Article Toolsby Sharon Joyce
These devices seem way too fragile for their application. Either the manufacturers are purposely programing their phones to malfunction one month after their warranty expires (its one of those big brother conspiracys!) or they just don't make them to withstand the beating they go through. We carry them everywhere and people are clumsy. They should make them indestructable like those titanium eyeglasses that they make nowadays. Or, design them with rubber protection on the inside and out, making the internal circuit board capable of bearing the longest fall (like that Mars rover thing that bounced, I don't know how many times, after it rocketed onto the Mars surface. I know it would make these devices a tad bigger but I would rather have them larger than have to replace my phone every year. And how about just protecting the keys without making it a flip phone? Those hinges wear out pretty quick and makes the screen malfunction. How about some compensation for these ideas?
