I'm facinated with possibilities of ara. What blocks/midules would you create for it?
Liquid cooling block is on my list.
I doubt the possibility, but I'd like to be able to throw tons of RAM onto a device when I want to.
That and a DisplayPort DockPort, to make it possible to jack it into a single standard port to use it a "real" computer.
45,000 mAh battery. So i don't have to charge it for a month.
45K mAh... Actually, 45 Ah... I don't think you'll get two weeks :)
Hard to say. Think the current phone developers already have a pretty good balance of components. Some random ideas I don't ever care about that much:
Full size USB ports, IR control for TVs, decent speakers, projector.
An on-site chemistry analysis might be something I'd care about. They've got those concept devices that can tell you how ripe a melon is, that's be something fun to play around with. Or blood sugar level analysis.
Upgrade capability is the selling point for me. I can't imagine ever needing a higher resolution screen than I've already got. Upgrading the GPU would've been nice though.
The standard sizes of the devices is also an interesting point. But 9.7 mm would make it twice as thick as the device I've currently got. It better be pretty sturdy, I don't want it bursting into a dozen pieces if it drops.
Slightly better than two weeks actually ;) If I turned off Sync and GPS on my phone I can go from a day between charges to almost a week.
You must be a very sensible smartphone user then. I barely communicate with people, so my phone is used for checking weather and browsing lolpics when I use the loo. I've got a large screen though, which is the main factor in battery life. In any case, most of my battery is drained by the end of the day and I wouldn't risk forgetting to charge the thing overnight on a 2600 mAh battery.
I can't imagine "normal" people who text and browse facebook all the time lasting more than 24 hours on a single charge.
High grade amp/dac.
the largest mAh battery that isn't a brick. (prays for at least a 6K mAh)
64bit octocore, 6 gigs RAM, best GPU unit available to man, 12 megapixel 3d capable camera, 2-3 megapixel front facing 3d capable camera, maybe a multilayer 3d 1080p/2k screen (like the 3ds). kicking speakers (AKG please? i wanna hear that studio monitor headset quality!) a IR blaster and a 128gb drive. as for connectivity- microHDMI/mini display port, dual SIM capable, micro USB.
Megapixels only make the file size larger, don't do much for the quality. You need larger light sensor, better optics, possibly a physical zoom function for quality.
And speaking of cameras, someone somewhere was suggesting a Selfie Edition phone, where the front facing camera is way better and is dedicated for capturing higher quality selfies...
