Should be fixed now! :)

It is! My most hateful comment is about the Apple Air: "Please provide an example why a screw or removable panel would provide less value to the consumer than gluing the thing and making it impossible to replace the battery on your own. I eagerly await your response."

Why, your seventh word is obscene language. I dare not repeat it because I don't want to be branded a hater by someone's glorified grep program. :)

Reliability. Screws come loose, especially when flexed in a pocket etc. Its considered a win in mechanical engineering circles when you remove a screw from a design.

I look forward to metal-air batteries, where the charge can be expected to exceed the lifetime of the device.

Not to run too far away from the actual content of the post but...

I thought metal-air batteries didn't produce a high enough current to be used in devices requiring much more juice than a hearing aid?

Alcoa runs a car on an aluminum=>alumina metal-air battery!

Even when the part is normally a replaceable part? Perhaps this explains the increase in difficulty in repairing cars nowadays.

Lose the sound, please- or at least warn people so they can turn off their speakers in an office.

It is not.

Just got that error.
