schestowitz"I own a couple of smartwatches and I have no regrets about buying them. I use them with a Mifi device rather than putting SIM cards in them, and I keep them in airplane mode with wifi and bluetooth off when I'm not using them. I don't use the fitness stuff, only the usual stuff."Jul 02 01:16

acer-boxPatents are by and large a disgrace to innovation, their rationale has long past its peak. But language like "disease" is too colorful either. Suggesting there is correlation with the sponsoring is kinda offensive.Jul 02 12:38

acer-boxYes. Techrights is a bit like The Sun/Daily Mail in using all sorts of shrieking hyperbole that insult the intelligence of the reader. Just present the facts and maybe then add some interpretation. The reader is usually perfectly capable of drawing conclusions themselves.Jul 02 12:39
