i've been a huge tech nerd as long as i can remember. always loved video games, electronics, computers, my grandpa's remote controlled glider planes. taught myself to program the apple ][e in the late 80s/early 90s when the teachers had no fuckin clue what they were. but..
i hate smart phones. i had a pager for a while. i loved that. i didn't even get a cell phone of any variety until the mid 2000s, and that was a clam shell christmas gift. i don't like laptops either. never bought one. dislike tablets even more.
texter's neck is going to be bigger thing than tennis elbow. i can't stand looking down at a screen. when someone is home, i cannot fathom why they would opt to use a cell phone for things instead of a desktop computer, or at least a laptop properly elevated. my smart phone is a 10 year old model i keep for emergency purposes and that's it.
now... if they can release a pair of very lightweight prescription glasses that can show me a HUD and relevant information while using lasers or some shit to provide me a virtual keyboard and mouse on any surface...
