The worst thing about jumping on the bandwagon of really new tech is that, most of the time, it just doesn’t work that well. Remember the first mainstream touch screen devices of the late 90s? Or the first laptops? They were terribly clunky, unresponsive, and most important — pricey. But we do it anyway, because it’s human nature to want the shiniest, coolest thing. Heck, I still remember lugging around a bulky Sega Game Gear as a kid, so proud of having “cutting edge” portable gaming, even though the battery life was so bad my parents began yelling at me for asking them to buy too many batteries (the handheld needed six AA batteries just to run for three or four hours).
