![]() With the amount of travelling I do, that would be a lot quicker and greener. What piece of technology would you most like to own? If it was something not real, I would like a time machine/transporter. But I don't want one of those human-looking robots, I want like an old-skool one with the square head – almost like a companion, or a pet. Robot butlers – a good idea or not? I don't need a butler – what I do want a robot. I'd much rather read a newspaper – something like a Kindle wouldn't be a big pull for me. I like the smell and the feel of the paper. I like having the physical thing – not just DVDs, but even books. I recently re-bought The King of Comedy, because I lost my old one – I love that film. But I'm not sure about the iPhone yet.ĭo you still buy physical media such as CDs and DVDs, or do you download? What was your last purchase? CDs not so much, but DVDs definitely. For me it's like the difference between coffee and tea – I'm a coffee person. Everything about it, it just feels right. What's the most expensive piece of technology you've ever owned? I guess it would be my laptop, my Macbook Pro. Also, I miss peoples' handwriting – we never write letters any more. Emails are great, texting is great, but for the right purposes. But for certain things I'm old-skool – I love technology, and I love what it does, but I think it should enhance and not take over your life. I'm Japanese, so it's in our blood to be geeks. It's a bit boring, but it's worth it.ĭo you consider yourself to be a luddite or a nerd? Both. I know everyone hates to do it, but I think that to get the best out of whatever you buy, you have to. Also, be clear about what you need, and read the instructions. If you had one tip about getting the best out of new technology, what would it be? I believe you should always buy the best that you can afford at the time. Is there any particular piece of technology that you have owned and hated? I've had a rotten time with shredders. ![]() It's just that dread that it can go wrong, and it often does. What always frustrates you about technology in general? When it breaks down, or runs out of juice. I think it will just be newer and better. Do you think it will be obsolete in 10 years' time? I don't think so, I hope not. So what it can do is choose the best network, depending on what country you're in. So what I would really like to see is a phone that holds three Sim cards, so you have different numbers in different territories. What additional features would you add if you could? I travel so much – I'm in the US a lot, and in Japan – that I currently have three phones. ![]()
