Invalid Example?[edit]

I don't see how the use of NiMH batteries is an example of error-tolerant design. As far as I'm aware there is no information to support the theory that NiMH batteries were introduced to address the issue of portable music players being left turned on. Can we have the example removed or replaced with a more relevant example? As this is a quite slow-moving page, I've taken the liberty of removing the example for now, but if anyone has reason for it to be reverted, go for it and add an explanation here. - Gnack 04:43, 7 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed - error tolorant full-text search however is rarely performed with Levenshtein - too costly in terms of CPU power - I added soundex to your Google example and changed levenshtein distance to general edit distance D'Artagnol (talk) 19:28, 28 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
