[QUOTE 2367295, member: 45"]Given that the contact fail point is where the computer connects to the mount, and both wired and wireless are detachable, I don't think this is the case. The battery compartments are identical. In fact in most cases the computer is identical and only the mounts are different.[/quote]
I am not sure I understand your point. I can interpret 2 different ways, of which neither may be what you really meant. Possibly a failing on my comprehension skills.
One of the ways I read the above is that you are saying both have external contacts between the computer and mount thus they both have the same mode of failure and the same probabability of failure?
The other way I read it is harder to comment, because it contains its own ambiguities and uncertainties. Something along the lines of a technicality, the mount failed not the computer? Or if it gets wet you can detach it to avoid failure (whilst also giving up all data)?
I don't really want to debate this one too much, I have my opinion on why wireless is better (not solely based on bad weather may I add) and others have theirs, neither are likely to change much in this case and I have little interest in going on a crusade. More so thinking out loud at this point trying to figure out the point you are trying to make.
