"spent 45 minutes typing an email to his friend..." Hilarious!!!



I like the bash on mac users when they said they would buy anything shiny apple makes.

The keyboard will eventually disappear, but it won't be something as stupid as that, it will be integrated into the screen or be some kind of light device like these:

The sad thing is even if Apple came out with that people would still line up for miles to get one.

voice would be impractical in the cube farm office environment favored by so many American companies.

It'd be cool but IMO there will always be the need for some kind of interface that isn't audible.

The laptop as we know it will become rare if not disappear. As smartphones progress they will replace the need for laptops.

The voice can drive you nuts. Years ago I was living with my wife (girlfriend at the time) and her parents. One morning her father woke me up yelling into his mic trying to train his voice program.
