This is the type of device that I have been waiting for. I often need to sketch out things... This is something which "could" be done on something like a surface, but I find writing on a normal laptop screen to be very uncomfortable and unnatural. It tends to make everything I write or draw look like I was doing some finger painting. Large and crappy.
Making it foldable and giving it a different name will totally solve that problem.
Yep. This is still an "observation", not a "conclusion".
That won't stop the press running with the story though, and lo, a whole load more stupidity will be created from nothing.
Stupidity is the only thing that that doesn't obey the laws of thermodynamics. It's an infinite resource and can be called into existence at any time with negligible energy loss to the otherwise closed system.

Relax: The USA's smartphones still have bigger screens and generate much more CO2 when you use them.

Not.
"Writing" could be done on smartphones.
But it isn't.
For a reason.

You misspelled 'America'.
Could they possibly have given it a more annoying presentation?
I imagine the answer lies somewhere between NIMBY and fragility.
Whatever, it shows Mr. Musk is practical. If the "Sci-Fi novel" version of an idea doesn't work, use the one that does.
Just be careful not to blink, sneeze or yawn when editing anything important.
it calls for a more expensive, complex and larger space craft.
Not really. It just calls for two separate craft joined together with a piece of string.
Put astronauts in one, supplies in the other (or whatever). Spin it up, fling it towards Mars.
If you mean "DOA", then I agree. Why would anyone need Win32/64 on a phone?
They wouldn't, but they might need it on a tablet size device, .... and the code is the same.
Never mind that, what are we going to call this?
"Splitgate" doesn't really roll off the tongue. How about "burstgate"?
Clive Sinclair started this naming trend back in the 1980s.

I thought Trump was against funding schools
It depends on who's paying Trump so they can be in charge of the funds.
eg. Betsy Devos, she paid Trump hundreds of millions for her billion dollar education gig.
It's almost as if you've missed an entire week of stories on how Apple's facial recognition works.
Or in the control panel you can hit Airplane Mode, which is Right Friggin' Next to Them.
Yeah, because not being able to receive calls is the reason you paid all that money for an iPhone, right?
So what you're saying is that it'll turn them on again for you, automatically.
I'm sure that's a great convenience, having to remember to turn them off again. Every day.
That is what Apple tells you, yes.
Yet another deluded fanboy...

So?
If it's some highly parallel benchmark then obviously more cores will look better.
Will it equate to more performance in real life? I doubt it. Not many phones are used for raytracing or compressing video.
Actually, compressing video is a rather core task of any smartphone.
Really? How much video have you compressed today?
The stuff coming from the camera might need compressing but once you can do it you can do it. No need for any more cores.
You're wearing it wrong.
Does that mean Apple can't patent this and Samsung can copy it?
XBOX controllers don't take a pounding all day, every day?
And wait 'til they find out there's a flash drive hidden in the controller chip that will wake up after six months and infect their systems.
Admitting there's a problem is always the first step towards a solution.
How about Russians?
