gollark: What?
gollark: "Kura Technologies" apparently managed some very impressive things with accursed physicsy optics, but I don't think they're widely available now or have had proper external reviews.

gollark: Yet most people in developed countries apparently have smartphones now.
gollark: Presumably if they get particularly popular, they'll be available on the technically-worse-but-better-looking-than-buying-it-outright phone-style contracts.
