Who We Are

We believe every laptop will be left behind in favor of a mobile device. Don't you?


Think about it. Mobile devices are affordable, portable, and these days, they're more powerful than ever. While handhelds were once thought of as nifty email gadgets, the rapid pace of technological innovation has quickly transformed them into powerful integrated solutions.

Every Laptop Left Behind brings together like-minded people and companies who believe that eventually, laptops will be a thing of the past. The software and hardware developers leading this movement are on the cutting edge of the mobile industry, and they're committed to helping everyone leave laptops behind for good.

Wired Magazine has an excellent article posted that should serve as a nice counterpoint to all the netbook chatter on ELLB recently. The article depicts the 5 gadgets killed by the cell/smartphone, which are:

The PDA
The Camera
The UMPC
The Phone
The MP3 Player

However, what should bring a smile to ELLB readers is the next gadget placed by Wired on the hit list: the laptop. After that, the netbook maybe?

Five Gadgets That Were Killed by the Cellphone

Another video rundown on netbooks, this time from TheStreet.com’s Senior Technology Correspondent Gary Krakow. The video plays like a bizzaro Home Shopping Network, with Krakow standing behind rows of netbooks, telling you why you shouldn’t buy one. His reasons: anything processor intensive — from gaming to graphics editing to watching YouTube (?) — is too much for the little netbook. Krakow then flips the script to say that netbooks are great for the needs of most people, i.e. carrying something around that can connect to the Internet for reading email.

Now, most of you may know that I’m not Krackow’s biggest fan. But I have to ask, how is this better than an iPhone?

Walter Mossberg, the much respected personal technology columnist for the Wall Street Journal, has posted a video discussing his recent WSJ article on netbooks - the slim, cheap computing hybrid that has wedged itself somewhere in-between the smartphone and the laptop. Although a little dry, it’s worth watching to get some quality feedback on the most desirable netbooks.

The question rolling through my mind is what am I having for dinner? whether not the netbook is the next stage in the ELLB evolution or a possible impediment. My fellow employees feel that the quick emergence of the netbook is a great thing: “we’re just one step away from a netbook-smartphone fusion to create the ELLB-phone!” but I’m not so sure.

I have a fear that if netbooks become too popular, the demand for an ELLB phone will decrease. And at the end of the day, no matter how desirable a netbook is over a laptop for our road warriors of the future, you’re still stuck with carrying two devices, which is against the ELLB Code of Ethics.
