Look, dude. I had a wireless charger 3 years ago, with my Palm Pre. I know all about them. They are nice to have, on a night stand in your bedroom, or in your office. They are not going to be carried around for charging on the go. It is not an option for anyone who is making phones to tell consumers to carry an adapter and a wireless charging brick around with them. But you are welcome to try it. Or, better yet, sell the idea to Apple. They need more humor over there.

Your other idea is more lamebrained than membraned. That won't hurt voice or speaker quality to place a waterproof membrane over the speaker ports, microphone and earpiece, now will it? Seriously? The people who fret over the risk of dropping their phone into the drink can go get one of those aftermarket solutions (I think they run over $100), but OEMs don't have time for such nonsense.

It’s fun sometimes talking to someone with absolutely no imagination but I find it quickly get boring. Gotta go, bye.
