For the geeky rebel.
Stop using what is fed to you. Build your own - smartphone, tablet, laptop.
Chips, screens, buttons, connectors, power sources; all for sale. Just check the BOM (bill of materials) for anything you liked. Most of the time, you will find the BOM is much cheaper than the final device. Asic and fpga technologies permit sharing reproduceable electronic designs as easy as sharing text (vhdl) files.
This is all just a very complicated lego. Free software is a reality, programming knowledge is free.
Shift design and the limits of imagination to the masses. Laugh in the face of copyright with objects everyone can use and enjoy.
Advance the capabilities of humanity creating your own electronics.
LOve it! O.o
