indeed i was very annoyed when i had to get a camera on a phone some years back. and then over time use phone camera so much more have upgraded phones for the better camera!
You had me at toaster.
I agree, the droids we use today all have their own UI (R2) and trend (golden C3). Personally I think what makes for more "believable" science fiction is when things have kinks and bugs in them - like the fumbling fail-to-jump to light speed sequences - brilliant!
Opposite would be when "the bad guy" has the "good guy" in his sights and oh gosh, the gun jams. File that under "spitting water when someone does something really lame and stupid in a tv sitcom"
If you want really pathetic, how about those robo-machine-gun suits used in "The Matrix" against [our intelligence] the invaders
