And a 10 megapixel camera used to cost 10 times what the best Hasselblad Camera used to cost.

Now you can get one in your phone.

Technology in this day and age gets cheaper by the day.

They WILL come up with a cheaper method of charging and they will come up with a cheaper battery.

smoker Before you criticize a man, walk a mile in his shoes. That way, if he gets angry, he's a mile away and barefoot.
