I completely agree, but was mystified by this statement...
*Please, suggesting something like this and encouraging people to implement it is like coming out with a device that only charges over micro-USB. Just... don't."
What's wrong with micro-USB? I look for it whenever I buy a new device, just 'cause all new phones, cameras, etc. use it (and only it) for charging. It's a nice standard. No?
- nodata 15y agoMaybe he's complaining about needing a computer to charge something, i.e. he doesn't have a wall-plug usb charger.
- sneak 15y agoI said micro-USB, not mini-USB.
- lambda 15y agoYes, micro-USB is the standard which most phones, and some other devices like the Sony Reader, conform to these days. What's wrong with that? I've never seen another phone connector standard become as popular; before micro-USB it was mostly proprietary connectors.
- sneak 15y agoNo, before micro-USB it was mini-USB, which worked great on fucking everything from portable hard drives to Blackberries (remember those?) for years and years. Seriously, micro-USB is a solution looking for a problem.
