If you don't have a computer, you're unlikely to have a wifi router.
- mckoss 16y agoInteresting point. But WiFi networks are available in coffee shops, etc. And I think the main point of simplification I would be looking for is not that I won't have a computer as well, but I don't want my devices to be dependent on that computer.
- bad_user 16y agoHotels have wifi routers, coffee shops have wifi routers, libraries have wifi routers, airports have wifi routers, conference rooms have wifi routers - even the park area I'm visiting with my kid has open wifi access. Heck, when I have jailbroken my iPhone with jailbreakme a couple of months ago; I was drinking coffee in a coffee shop that had wifi; and I had no laptop and no wifi router with me ;) Suggesting that Apple requires iOS to sync with the PC for any reason other than keeping customers locked in iTunes is silly.
- InclinedPlane 16y ago"If you don't have a computer, you're unlikely to have a wifi router." That's a very limited mindset. In another few years, if there aren't already, there will be households with smartphones, tablets, and broadband + wifi at home but no traditional PCs of any sort. If you refuse to acknowledge such a scenario then you will lose sales for those folks.
