Moment of irony when I realized my new Nexus is the only Android device I own, that I cannot develop apps on. Short of sending apk's over wifi to sideload. (Because of the USB)

Looking forward to laptops with USB C connectors.

Surprisingly it's been slow! I was very sad to see, for instance, that MS Surface Book does not have a USB C port. It is the single reason that I'm not going to buy the Surface Book.

At least Apple went all in with the Macbook air. Also, I think iPhone 7 will use the USB 3.1 type C port.
