minus-squarew3dd1e@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up0·3 days agoI see a lot of negativity in the comments. And yeah, this thing probably isn’t something I’m going to get, but at least they are trying something that isn’t a generic rectangle of glass like all the others. I miss the days of fun gadgets.
minus-squareTattorack@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·3 days agoFun useful gadgets. A gadget for the sake of a gadget is just another word for “e-waste”.
minus-squareLandedGentry@lemmy.ziplinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·3 days agoYeah I’m just tired of seeing projects like this get abandoned quickly
minus-squarenetvor@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·3 days agoI get it, but a gentle reminder, often the best way for society to have an awesome projects is to have a lot of projects.
minus-squarehumble peat digger@lemm.eelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·3 days agoI like the generic rectangle block of glass. Don’t understand why they insist on a physical keyboard.
minus-squareDeaDvey@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkarrow-up0·3 days agoI much prefer physical keyboards and find it difficult to use touchscreen, so a mobile, qwerty keyboard sounds great to me.

minus-squarew3dd1e@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up0·3 days agoI don’t mind it, but I also don’t hate that people are trying something new! Maybe it fails, but maybe it’s awesome!
minus-squareTheReturnOfPEB@reddthat.comlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·3 days agoi am personally sick of shiny rectangles. physical keyboards are the buttons on your cars dash instead of the shiny rectangle on your car’s dash.
