Now give me 60 hour performance on my DAP and I'll be happy

I gotta tell you, my i7 still has killer battery performance compared to all my other DAPs

While I'm not sure if I want my devices to be flexible, this technology does look promising.

If I didn't know any better I say things are adding up to some future product but again, I know better
