Apple iPhone Laptop!?
Apple have probably thrown the laptop world into a frenzy with a patent filed in September late last year. A laptop/notebook chassis that docks a phone which in turn becomes a high tech track pad which acts as a touchscreen – which works:
An electronic accessory device, comprising: an operational component that provides an output to a user; a housing carrying the operational component, the housing having a recess; and a control interface coupled to the operational component and configured to receive a control signal from an electronic host device when the electronic host device is positioned within the recess and coupled to the control interface, wherein the electronic accessory device is inoperable without the electronic host device being coupled to the control interface.
The patent is basically just a shell with a screen, with the phone providing all of the power. Yet the chassis according to the patent is a lot more than just a shell:
In various embodiments, the electronic accessory device can be considered a “thin” device, in that it extends the functionality of another device but is inoperable by itself as a stand-alone device. As such, the accessory device can have little or no independent processing resources in the form of a CPU or similar comprehensive processor. The accessory device, however, can provide auxiliary processing resources, such a graphical processing unit, or GPU, or other processing resources that can support the functions of the portable computing device.

Dopamine highs!
There’s a reason as to why we always want to check our phones!
Sharon Begley, author of ‘Can’t Just Stop: An Investigation of Compulsions’, thinks we a hit of dopamine (it’s what makes you feel good when listening to your favourite music) when checking our phones. It’s not about the texts we receive or the likes on a Facebook post – it’s the anticipation, we’re secretly hoping to see something that will give us a pleasure boost.
Which is why so many of us are seemingly addicted.
Begley recommends simply to check all your emails and texts at the end of the day rather than throughout.
