Time to review the so-called [[hardware requirements]] and see if they are actually [[e-waste]] creation non-requirements. | Time to review the so-called [[hardware requirements]] and see if they are actually [[e-waste]] creation non-requirements. | ||
:I view the hardware requirements as something that by market dynamics will be implemented because of demand for such versatile techonologies as [[Bluetooth]] for example. [[NFC]] is another thing that will in my guess be wildly popular within a few years if the mobile phone manufacturers decide to go that way. I guess i should contact the major vendors for inquiring about their intentions regarding [[NFC]] because for [[Consumerium:Usability]] it would be great feature on mobile terminals. It is not controversial and potentially dangerous as [[RFID]] is seen by many.n --[[User:Juxo|Juxo]] 13:49, 10 Mar 2004 (EET) | :I view the hardware requirements as something that by market dynamics will be implemented because of demand for such versatile techonologies as [[Bluetooth]] for example.

::These are just assumptions, and "intentions" mean nothing. Again I refer to [[PCS base station handoff]], which was certainly intended and promised, but which quite a few small companies died waiting for. Let's not go that way. THere is also no demand for "technologies", there is demand for features. | |||

::Perhaps true, but, until it hits the [[retail shelf]], it's not our problem, nor our opportunity. [[Paper Consumerium]] is far more promising an avenue, and after that, I'd shoot for [[audio]] delivery using [[FM radio]] or [[cordless protocol]]. These other things always take longer than you think, and only a tiny number of people have them. | |||

The term '''[[e-waste]]''' is actually inadequate as it focuses on [[waste disposal]] and not the whole [[comprehensive outcome]], e.g. of [[tantallum]] mining. | |||
