I guess laptops will eventually go this way. It will just take time for the cost of flash memory to drop further to become viable. </p> 2007-01-01T07:07:57-08:00 Want MP3 player, don´t want computer https://www.siliconpopculture.com/forum/viewthread/6527/ https://www.siliconpopculture.com/forum/viewthread/6527/#When:10:15:21Z <p>If I buy a sony mp3 player, can I download music from the internet from any computer, like one at an internet cafe, using explorer, or do I need to have special software on a particular computer? </p> 2006-07-18T10:15:21-08:00 Super-high spec TR on eBay https://www.siliconpopculture.com/forum/viewthread/5779/ https://www.siliconpopculture.com/forum/viewthread/5779/#When:17:25:44Z <p>So here I was looking at <a href="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&amp;item=6840836190">&nbsp; </a> yesterday. What a fantastic deal! I had barely got over the size of the hard disk (perhaps he made it himself?) before I suddenly noticed the size of the screen. We’ve all had those occasions where we’ve wished the TR had a slightly larger screen, and the 106-inch beast he’s made for his TR would really be quite something.</p> <p>As long as I could get it in my front door…</p> <p>Chris[/url] </p> 2006-01-19T17:25:44-08:00 [Wish] Improve the touchpad! https://www.siliconpopculture.com/forum/viewthread/4967/ https://www.siliconpopculture.com/forum/viewthread/4967/#When:18:03:24Z <p>Wouldn’t it be cool if Sony were to integrate the Synaptics cPad?</p> <p><img src="http://www.synaptics.com/img/prod_cel_cpad_1.jpg" alt='prod_cel_cpad_1.jpg' /> </p> 2005-08-03T18:03:24-08:00 Sony T now with pci express x800 and HDTV https://www.siliconpopculture.com/forum/viewthread/3077/ https://www.siliconpopculture.com/forum/viewthread/3077/#When:17:58:20Z <p>Yes these are a couple things that I would love to see….In the next year I would like to see atleast the specs of speed and graphics enter these small ultra portables….</p> <p>I tell you they keep getting better and better every day…</p> <p>But when they are small forum factor it seems to go at a snails crawl pace to upgrade on speed at just a 100mhz at a time.. <img src="https://www.siliconpopculture.com/images/smileys/rolleyes.gif" width="19" height="19" alt="rolleyes" style="border:0;" /> </p> 2004-11-01T17:58:20-08:00 Light https://www.siliconpopculture.com/forum/viewthread/2413/ https://www.siliconpopculture.com/forum/viewthread/2413/#When:15:21:52Z <p>When typing in low light or dark areas one or two small LED lamps to illuminate the keyboard would be nice.</p> <p><img src="http://www.pc.ibm.com/us/thinkpad/images/thinklight.gif" alt='thinklight.gif' /></p> <p>The ThinkLightâ„¢ keyboard light allows you to work in low-light conditions. Located on the top edge of the display, this tiny LED illuminates your keyboard to let you keep working. ThinkPad notebooks are the only notebook family with the ThinkLight keyboard light. </p> 2004-09-10T15:21:52-08:00 Special Edition TR (only 5000 made) https://www.siliconpopculture.com/forum/viewthread/2711/ https://www.siliconpopculture.com/forum/viewthread/2711/#When:10:31:05Z <p>That would be cool if sony produced a limited edition TR </p> <p>Make only like 5000 to go to the United States…</p> <p>Make it with a carbon fiber chasis….</p> <p>Intergated Bluetooth..</p> <p>Put a faster cpu in it then the T series…</p> <p>Maybe a 1.2,1.3 or something….</p> <p>A larger Harddrive…..maybe like a 60 or 80 gig…</p> <p>Give the Large bt3 battery.</p> <p>Come with a limted edition case that looks like it cost bank…..</p> <p>and also through in some kewl accesories like wireless headphones, bt mouse,&nbsp; and so on.</p> <p>just a wish…thats why I put it under wish list… <img src="https://www.siliconpopculture.com/images/smileys/raspberry.gif" width="19" height="19" alt="raspberry" style="border:0;" /> </p> 2004-09-30T10:31:05-08:00 A TR Series Tablet https://www.siliconpopculture.com/forum/viewthread/2371/ https://www.siliconpopculture.com/forum/viewthread/2371/#When:11:53:31Z <p>I would like to see a TR Series laptop that had a swivel screen that would open, turn, and fold down to make a small, light, tablet PC. </p> 2004-09-07T11:53:31-08:00 my xmas wish list…but i’m buddhist so what does it matter. https://www.siliconpopculture.com/forum/viewthread/5/ https://www.siliconpopculture.com/forum/viewthread/5/#When:01:43:53Z <p>BETTER SPEAKERS!&nbsp; Please already.&nbsp; Can I say S*** without being bleeped here?

I wouldn’t mind getting rid of the camera to add additional space for the screen.&nbsp; Make the case maybe the same size but cut down on the boders around the screen so maybe they could make it like 11.6 wide screen or something like that nature.</p> <p>2. Go with a light weight maybe a carbon fiber.&nbsp; </p> <p>3. Have a built in wireless tv turner.&nbsp; </p> <p>Just anyone elses thoughts? </p> 2004-08-10T20:31:44-08:00
