[citation][nom]trak74[/nom]imagine carrying all that crap in ur pocket...is less portable than a ds or psp[/citation]
Odd... cuz I remember bringing games with my DS and my PSP... you dont have that with this really, are you saying that its easier to carry around an envelope full of PSP and DS games then it is to carry around a envelop full of accessories for a cell phone?
I don't see them making the cell a massive hulking device so I cant see these accessories being no bigger then 4 PSP disks... if that's to big for you... its OK normal size people will have no problem slipping them into there pocket... just like a stack of portable games!

Well they should fix it then. At least 30 FPS at HD with lossless compression for everything except video/gaming streams... HSPA+ should go up to 168 Mbps upstream, would that be enough?. Maybe the displays could have some sort of cache so that not entire video output would be necessary for every frame.
On the other hand, they can already get us to buy a smartphone, a tablet, a laptop and a desktop, why give all that money up by letting us make do with one device?

Well id generally only be playing one game, unless im going on a holiday, in which case they would be in my bag anyway, carrying a ds would be just the ds with the game in it. but imagine being on the same holiday and playing a game (also imagine it is the same quality game as the ds or psp) and having to switch between the two pieces of hardware each time you recieve a text...

No, I can't accept that. I want, nay demand the following in less than 15 years:
Smartphone-like device that:
- renders images directly on your retina with lasers
- projects sound directly at your ears without speakers or headphones (sound-from-ultrasound)
- tracks gestures including hands, eyes and ears
Then we wouldn't need any hardware - the device would render virtual controls in our field of vision and we'd have truly augmented reality with whatever interface we want.
The thing is all of these technologies already exist in some experimental fashion, if somebody put in $50B into research, we could have this in 5-6 years. If I had that money, I'd do it...

Dam straight and while we are at it we can get our smartphone to:
- Use lasers to cook our toast / heat up a surface to cook anything on (think cooking bacon and eggs on ur desk in the office in the morning, hell yeah)
- Use software and non-intrusive hardware to let us be able to see 360 degrees with 2020 vision
- Use software and non-intrusive hardware to allow us to hear a mice run across the road from outside of a building and be able to cancel out other sounds and track in on just that one mouse (all using our thoughts, no controller needed)
- Implement some sort of brain control software and hardware that allows us to control what we do, so if I didnt feel like going for my morning jog, i could use my phone to make myself want to do it, and instead of a morning jog, ill set my output to sprint for 30minutes
- If we could implement a gravity control field that is generated from our phones so that we could fly places and a teleport device that allows us to project warp holes into a empty space to teleport to anywhere in the universe
- When SW:TOR releases it would be nice if i could play right through to level 50, so i would also like my phone to:
- Feed me (via tubes etc)
- Sustain my bowl movements
- Generate and email sick certificates each day that it detects that i am not at work (via
gps signals showing im not in the area)
- Utilise my body while im asleep at my chair by farming trash in the universe
- Ensure I get 6 hours (precise to the milisecond) of sleep while in my chair by putting me
to sleep with the "brain control" device and waking me up the same way
- Controlling my metabolism with devices attached to the phone so that I dont gain weight
during this time
That prolly about it, id be happy with that. Texting would be a bonus...

You jest sir, but:
- you can buy a laser projector for a few hundred dollars
- scientists have made a 30 micrometer laser (smaller than the wavelength it emits)
- sound projection equipment is commercially available
- gesture detection is available via Kinect for example
All they need to do is fit all this into a cellphone and make it work together. Seeing how they put the equivalent of my clunky midi-tower PC from 1996 in a cellphone in 15 years (at half the price and 1/10 the power no less), I can totally see smartphones being able to do what i want in another 15.
You will probably have to wait 30 years for your wish list though.

[citation][nom]klavis[/nom]It's and interesting concept, I'm actually a bit surprised it hadn't been thought up before hand and produced.[/citation]
i thought of i back in 2007, and wouldn't shut up about it. except i was more the shell around the phone, not the parts in it like these appear to be.
i came up with it looking at a ps2/3 controller, and a psp, make the shell around the iphone, and there, tactile buttons, and a VERY viable gaming platform.
latter on when the power went up, i proposed to just make the iphone/iphone like device the "tower" and plug in a laptop or tablet screen.
than this one company, i forget who, ACTUALLY DEMOED my 3 ideas... granted they never talked to me... but yea.
you have any idea how happy i am that at the very least 4-5 years after i first had the idea, SOMEONE is taking it fruition
[citation][nom]killerclick[/nom]Why can't phones connect wirelessly to multiple HD displays, keyboards, mice and speakers yet? Imagine having a phone in your pocket that could do that - no matter where you are you could take advantage of proper interfaces and do actual, useful work. Then it would make sense to pack more powerful hardware into phones.. and it would also make sense for Windows 8 to be an all-in-one OS.[/citation]
imagine being in walmart, and someone with a phone in the electronics department plays meatspin... you kind of see why its not here and simple to connect everything yet.
[citation][nom]back_by_demand[/nom]Wireless HDMI is in its infancy even on desktop PCs and are a real energy suckAs far as keyboard and mouse go you probably could add a bluetooth one but a mouse on a 4" screen is insane and who is going to use a keyboard on a phone?But at least you are seeing the future, eventually phones will have the power of an i7, the graphics of a GTX580 and the storage of a file server, all beamable to the nearest Holo-TV which will have native Kinect and voice control.But let's just step back, there has to be a thousand excruciating increments and even a few steps backwards before we get there, maybe your kids will have one.[/citation]
you know i have to imagine that by the time a holo tv is a viable option, we will have something akin to cyberbrain, or that kind of interface (see ghost in the shell stand alone complex, or matrix) and everything will be a virtual displays. with very little analogue.

Months ago I've suggested just that on a Motorolla forum, because they were asking for ideas. How is it possible to patent something so obvious????!!!!!!
This is just an idea. It's not tech, it doesn't cost millions to come up with. Hell, all slider phones, etc are just that. I even have a phone with a remote control!
