I don’t need no device whats got a keyboard only an Oriental blackjack dealers nimble fingers could handle. Sure if I’m going to be typing something lengthy I’lll need a real keyboard. Now if I can’t carry that real keyboard with me in some sort of physical or virtual combination, I ain’t a gonna be doin’ much typing at all! So the telephone would only have to give me a map to the nearest computer cafe/library/etc. (No, I don’t care whether its a Google map or not… just want something that shows me where I am and where I want to go).
Don’t gotta synchronize to nuttin’ either but if I did syncrhonize it sure wouldn’t be more than once a day so I doubt I’d care just what I synchronized to.
Now price and contractual enslavement… ah, there’s an issue!!
