Two colleages discussed the other day Apple's iphone and also some other products to go with it, such as competitors items. One often-noted locution was that no matter what telephone gets ahead it's great with all the functionality. This made me very angry and I told them my viewpoint with strictness:
Having so much functionalities in one item is nonsensical except computers. Why you buy something like a phone with MP3 player, browser, email etc when what really counts is that you want to call? Maybe some people also send SMS even though this is highly redundant. But the point is: How can you crave all this nonsense when what is important is that you call?!
They said they almost expected my reaction but not sure, so they wanted me to collaborate.
I have a mobile phone I bought in 1999. It is wellkept and works fine. I need nothing else and my colleagues can find me whenever they need. But I don't have stupid extra gadgets like calculator, browser etc and so I can keep on top of 100% productivity in work and at home. It is a shame that the US allows modern mobile phones with all the productivity loss they garner.
