i didnt want to hijack knytes thread on the CES, so here you go:
Quote: |
A BBC reporter at LA's Consumer Electronics Show (CES) gets challenged to break the Titanic of mobile technology that the company behind it bills the "world's first unbreakable phone". If you name your product something like that, you're just asking to be embarrassed in front of hundreds of thousands of people when it busts in a couple of toe-curlingly awkward seconds. |

How did the design team not factor in that things have corners?

i like the guy's reaction as soon as the phone breaks. It's probably EXACTLY how I would react, with the slow clap and all.

Why do dumb people insist on claiming things to be "unbreakable"? There will never be such a thing, so please stop embarassing yourselves. And geez, you would have thought they'd actually test the unbreakable aspect before shouting it from the mountaintop. No one thought to bash it around a bit in testing just to verify their claim?

Nothing is unbreakable, especially not technology.
The way he was banging it, I'm surprised the fishtank didn't break.
