Why can't I right click an email in Outlook, and select "I'd like to talk to you about this..." -- and have the system try to set up a call for us? Why do we assume emails must beget more emails?
Conversely, why do we assume the primary purpose of our mobile handsets is telephony? Why can't the press-and-hold shortcuts be to text my nearest and dearest, rather than call them? There are some people I text far more than I call!
UPDATE: What I really mean is that I can be sat on a plane doing email, and then when I get into the office I can flip into "talk to people" mode, and my phone rings and I have conversations with people I need to talk to in some sensible order.
