For mobile devices, that's a huge deal. There are no resources more scarce than battery power on a mobile device.
- bane 16y agoI don't disagree, but Android users seem to get by more or less "ok" without hardware 264 decoding (at least the ones who have devices without hardware decoding). Personally, I just leave my mobile devices plugged in most of the time anyway so they're always topped off, but that's just me.

- bane 16y agoWell, having a desk job does tend to make me stay in one place for the most part. If I know I'm going to be sitting there for longer than an hour -- I plug it in. In the car? Plug it in. etc.
