It's Gadget Greedy Life - 2010 A Year of Disappointment

" I was disappointed by the year in tech. We saw exceedingly few revolutionary technologies this year. In almost every category, the best products of 2010 offered only incremental improvements over those of 2009. They worked just a bit better or offered a few more features but did little that was an obvious leap forward."

The Year in Gadgets - Where were the revolutionary technologies in 2010?

Cool excerpt:

"Apple's big hardware innovation in the iPhone 4 was to put the antenna in a spot most susceptible to interference and to cover both the front and back of the phone in glass (because why have one easily breakable surface on a gadget that's bound to fall out of your hands when two will look so much better in ads?)"
