I think we can generally agree that things do not really last as long as before. I am quite sure you remember your first feature phone back when Nokia was an industry giant, wasn't it a tough cookie. How about your grandfather's TV and other electrical items – those tend to last for over a decade, decades even, before giving up the ghost, while today's refrigerators and TVs tend to spoil after a short while, leading many to weigh the cost of an extended warranty. What if someone could come up with the circuits inside consumer electronics devices to have a healing factor.
Ubergizmo, Circuits, heal thyself!
