A Phone Worth Keeping

[Jaysds1]

Hey all,

Today I just got seen this post on FaceBook about "having a phone that is worth keeping", and I actually found it interesting.

Here's a little video for what it's about:

Hahahaha, let the companies working togheter, that won't happen

Won't it? I wouldn't be so sure. People assumed many things were just crazy ideas that couldn't ever be done, yet here we are today. Everything is possible. There is much to achieve yet.

Would be epic and awesome but the design is fugly.

It sounds cool but most companies have such a big competitive profit boner that they won't co-operate with one another on a mutual basis unless they feel they're getting the better deal or the one up on the other participants. Such is the prick waving of capitalism.

Well, like ixjf says, basically anything is possible around these times.

Derp, 10 days to see this goes really happen.

edit:

Also, I don't think so that everyone is working togheter, you should know this if you (had/have) economics on your school, the people who are giving assignments to make a phone will only keep pushing the developers for the release data, like GTA V, the bosses where only pushing for the release date, because they only want the money, because there was so much asking for GTA V. Thats how it works, and by that, our economic would be f*cked up if this mobile would come on the market, let's take for example apple, they are making every year another IOS version ( for example ), they are disabling the apple ipod 3G updating and downloading from the appstore, since it's a old device, so a consumer thinks, I need a new one, this effect is very good for the local economic system. When this phone comes out, it will be awesome for the consumer but not awesome for the producer, yes it has blocks replacements, but still it would be cheap, these years are objects build to not last so long, the producers made it like this to gain a load of money, after that it's good for the economic.

-The end of the economic talk
