I recently fell in a lake with my OG iPhone. After about three days it was dried out and working again. Brief immersion in clean water really doesn't do permanent damage to electronics if you take a few precautions like leaving them off while they dry.

More like Bullshit. 1ms latency is a misquote, that's for the video encoding, not end-to-end latency. Can we get some editing in here? Latency is (of course) determined by your Internet connection, so typical latency will be 100-200ms, or worse if you're on wireless. That's going to make most games practically unplayable. Playing on this thing will feel like you're stuck in molasses, and if you think Mirror's Edge gave you motion sickness before, wait until you try it with 200ms of input lag.

Furthermore, ISPs lie about speeds and oversubscribe everyone so most people won't have the bandwidth for HD. Everything will look blurry and have artifacts. And if you thought ISPs were complaining about youtube, wait until they start bellyaching about this service. They'll start throttling it straight away, and I wouldn't even be surprised if some blocked it outright and charged an extra fee to unblock it.

Have you tried looking up Speakeasy DSL? It's expensive, but unlike Qwest you actually get the speed you pay for, low latencies, plus a static IP.

Come on Oni 2!

Well, he could have mentioned that if battery life is more important than 3G, you can turn it off and get the same battery life the first iPhone had.

Also, why are the graphics in these devices always so terribly *slow* to update? They need to get some ATI or NVIDIA chips up in there.

Devices like this and Kindle are why Verizon's and Google's open access commitments are so important. This could have happened years ago if the "soviet ministries" weren't standing in everyone's way.
