Re: A broken watch tells the right time twice a day?

"It's the same with phones though. They need a daily charge, and you just get used to it."

That, Mr Ain't Spartacus, is exactly the problem. Phones and smartwaches *should* be a solution to a problem, not a new source of problems.

Granted, plugging the phone to charge every other night and the smartwacht every night is a minor annoyance but instead of making my life easier they are introducing a new tasks. I am working for them instead of they working for me. And what is the trade-off? what new functionality do they bring to the table, what problem do they solve?

"Solution looking for a problem" is an understatement
