Is it just me, or has technology been a little bereft of excitement of late?
2012 has given us the release of the new iPad, the HTC One X and....hmmm, ummm, well not much else!
Although we're a quarter of the way through our year I'm still yet to see a technology arrive that really excites me (the Lytro camera I posted about in my last blog was SOOOO 2011!)
So we've had 3D come to televisions, retina screens to tablets, more megapixels to our cameras....yes that means you Nikon D800 and your 36.3mp! Nothing though is really getting me excited.
What do I mean by excited? I remember walking into an Apple Store in Stamford, Connecticut some time in 2007, where I first saw the iPhone. I was stunned, shocked, excited all at once. I knew straight away that this was a game changer. My Nokia N95 and Blackberry Pearl dated by years in one swoop by Apple. I was amazed.
I want to feel that again. So who's it going to be? Apple, Sony, Samsung? Someone put your hand up and give me something revolutionary to play with. That doesn't mean another folding tablet Sony....geez!
So has anyone got any thoughts on whats going to be the next big thing? Feel free to share your thoughts!
