You could easily steal your friends phone parts and replace them with yours.
[QUOTE=Glitchman;42698226]Remember back in the day where you would drop a phone and the battery and cover would fly off like 5 feet? Now you'd be looking for your CPU, RAM, camera, storage, speaker, toaster, led light, can opener.....[/QUOTE] I remember back when you dropped your phone and the battery, SIM card and cover flew off, then you just stuffed everything back in, turned the phone on and it worked perfectly normal. I know people today who are still using those phones and they still work perfectly normal. Seems like the smartphone pretty much ruined this standard. Now it's even worse with phones designed to barely last until the next phone by the same company is out.
Funny how the part they showed the pieces sliding in how the phone was on as soon as he flipped it over.

So now that it's actually being involved in something meaningful, I can't wait until Motorola drops them the moment MEGA brands starts a trademark dispute over the usage of the term "bloks".
iBlock Sounds like some sort of adblock software.
[QUOTE=alien_guy;42699759]You could easily steal your friends phone parts and replace them with yours.[/QUOTE]Shit. Motorola should include a pin activated back case, so you can't actually access the hardware of the phone without putting the pin in (unless you break it open). [editline]31st October 2013[/editline] Also are they working together or are they competitors? I can't imagine Phoneblocks doing very well against Motorola, especially since Motorola's engineering concept actually seems possible as many others have pointed out.
lol'd at the end "We don't want to be dependent on Motorolas funding, so we're going to be dependent on your funding. donate to us thanks"
[QUOTE=katbug;42695569]I had this exact idea literally 7 years ago.[/QUOTE] I came up with the Surface 8 years ago.
[QUOTE=Vodkavia;42709280]I came up with Windows 7.[/QUOTE] No, Windows 7 was my idea.
interesting comment on the video [quote=NeededGR13f]nobody sold out, this was all just staged by motorola from the start. they were already developing project ara and wanted a special way to release it in a way that made it look like they were listening to their customers. im just amazed more people dont realize a corporate mascot• when they see one. just listen to the way he's been talking this whole time.

I'm sorry but what is this?
[QUOTE=Killowatt;42709336]No, Windows 7 was my idea.[/QUOTE] I came up with the iPod in my infancy.
wouldn't this make the phone larger and heavier? since each part has its own casing, and you have more connections going on.
