Four Inventions That Need To Exist

Since I'm not really interested in going through the rigmarole of getting patents for these things, here are four inventions that need to exist. Go ahead, steal my ideas, just someone please invent them.

 

1) An iPhone that doesn't cost an arm and a leg. All I want to do is have all the features of my iPod Touch, but also be able to make calls so that I don't have to carry around both my cellphone and my iPod. I don't want 4G Internet, GPS, or any of that crazy stuff, I just want to make calls and texts from my iPod Touch without the expensive smartphone plans.

 

2) Brake lights on the front of cars. I can't tell you how many times I've seen cars approaching yellow lights when I'm turning left and I don't know if they're stopping or not. Seriously. Why can't the people in front of you know when you're braking? What's the big secret?

 

3) WiFi adaptor for phone jacks/adaptor cable for wireless devices that can plug into a phone jack. As an owner of a Nintendo DS and an iPod Touch, I can't even name the number of times I've seen an open phone jack with access to the Internet, but no way to connect to it. Sure, wireless is nice and all, but not everywhere has it and there needs to be an alternate solution for those devices.

 

4) Knee pads for baby pants. Simple one, really. Tired of your kids wearing out their pants by crawling around on the floor? Sell pants with built in knee pads. Problem solved.

1) That has nothing to do with technological limits, but rather new cool stuff being really expensive and them justifying the expense with lots of lame extras. But nowadays there are ton of cheap MP3 players out when they used to be super expensive, so I think you'll just have to wait this out.

2) I wouldn't leave that to estimations; I'd wait until they've passed me or completely stopped.

3) I had the problem when the Ethernet jack burned out on my laptop. So I bought a modem that creates a wireless signal for me. It was still $20, a bit bulky, and takes some time to set up and synchronize, but it was worth it for me. :P

4)... okay, that would be cool.

Aren't there plenty of other things to use that are cheaper than a iphone? My LG chocolate can do music (I don't use it because I don't have a sd card).

 

 

I agree with all others, though, haha.

Well, the iPod Touch is more than just a music player, since it's got all the apps that most other phones don't have, not to mention WiFi Internet.

1) I think the newest version of Skype for the iTouch can recieve calls whether or not you're actually using the app so it basically works as a proper phone (albeit one that requires the internet and an external microphone :/ ).

 

4) is a genius idea. :P

Get an android phone; there's a couple prepaid ones I think. Android has around half the apps of the iPhone (but it has less doubles/spam and more free apps). That's still around 100000. More than enough, I should think.

 

OR get an Apple Peel. Yeah. An Apple Peel. Buggy, requires jailbreaking, and sold by a dodgy-looking company, but hey, it turns an iPod Touch into an iPod Touch that can make phonecalls! :P
