I'm sure they'll get replaced one day by something else, much like human's reproductive organs (http://science.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=07/11/14/046251) down the line, but until then they remain truly portable and energy efficient, last more than a day (depending on the consumer) and are quite possibly much better in making that information remain where it's intended. And as an added bonus generally save you the hassle of needing to rotate and use a magnifying glass;)
Whoever approves funding for technologies like this to be developed for the mass market is literally taking money away from actually useful science. We are well over 6Bn people, and it seems that these new technologies are deliberately created to make jobs even more redundant.
What this century needs is better education not better tools to take it away from us (and you know why).
Besides, how many of you trust a robot to fiddle with YOUR bits?
This reminds me of the following joke I was told on a trip to Russia:
An inventor is at a meeting with an investor, explaining to him his innovative idea:
-...what I'm talking about is a universal shaving machine, much like dispensers you find on train stations, hotels and bars - you drop a coin, stick your head into the outlet, and you come out clean!
- Wait, but isn't everyone's head shape and skin tone different?
- That is true. But this is only the first time around...
Looks like the Russians are on the right bearings in places.
Firstly, topics dealing with friendship (let alone those that do involve females), especially in the "Real World" (wherever that is) is generally a no-go around./
Secondly, if you're failing to maintain your friendships offline, or make new once, this may be a sign of security related issues, but unlike those you might know from computer science, so I've no idea why you're seeking for help on./. And if you haven't read a single discussion here, while hiding away from the Internet - you won't get it.
And one thing./ can learn from Google is to keep new functionality beta until it's freaking well ready (fix the dupes in Tags(beta!)) ^_^

Good advice is one of those insults that ought to be forgiven.
