I agree, we do need a good Tv phone! The iPhone would be perfect for that... Hopefully the iPhone take 2 will do just that!]]>Apr 5th 2008 12:54PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/04/04/april-fool-ablecomm-forgets-what-day-it-is-retracts-panasonic/http://www.engadget.com/2008/04/04/april-fool-ablecomm-forgets-what-day-it-is-retracts-panasonic/
I did include a give-away that SOME media (not you) caught. I said that the mythical press conference took place on Tuesday, which was April Fools Day. Only one writer was suspicious enough to call and I told him that the "news" was April fooling.
