799,999,999 people think that Apple combines form with function to delightful effect.
How does that contradict what I wrote?
That many people LIKE the choices Apple made that compromised the performance or user experience to increase curb appeal does not change the fact that Apple made a compromise in performance or user experience to increase curb appeal.
There is no value judgement in that statement whatsoever.
Or both. I've read about energy storage technologies that allow you to basically pour the full charge in within seconds or minutes, which would be truly awesome. I think it would be nice to have 3 inductive charging units (office, car, bedside) that would continually top devices off so you rarely need to connect the device physically.
That said, I think fast charge is more likely for phone/tablet/notebook and inductive for a product designed to be worn 24/7.

I never said I contradicted you.
As TS would say, read what I posted.
40% more power wasted and twice the charging time. No, thank you.
THIS is the real future: ludicrously high capacities and ludicrously short charging times.
