Steve-o seriously sounded like he was reaching as hard as possible to make it sound innovative, and it ended up being boring as hell. I could actually hear him thinking, "hmm...how long can I simply surf the web for, and show off features that just about every touch screen has, and keep the crowd interested?!"
Something productive that isn't offensive to everyone who doesn't share your extremist views. No one here is claiming perfection with this, but calling it a total failure is a bit of a stretch in my opinion. Insults to not equal constructive or even viable reasoning.

Moving along, I found this article pretty interesting. The best thing to come out of this could be the competition to come from it. Hopefully we will see more and better products from other manufactures to adapt and force Apple to push the bar if they want to stay atop the heap in the "cooler than thou" gadget arena.
