Nothing new.
Neither is this demo apparently - since it dates from 2001.

Either way - iPods, PDA's and cell phones have not become interchangeble evices that EVERYONE uses as simply as a toaster.

Each is still isolated and not simply interconnected.

You are just sour because when you came pissing on our parade we didn't just take it lying down.
No, actually many mobile phones are combination PDAs now.
No fucking shit sherlock - do you some how think you are the only person that is up to date on the latests and greatest teachnology?

Everyone and the uncle knows this - so you are not sharing any new news with anyone.

Again - you are not telling anyone something they didn't already know.

Why would you presume that you hold the patent on knowing whats the latest tech? :roll:

That is the problem - after 6 years the price has not come down at all - and they are not universaly used by everyone - but rather only a select few technogeeks and yuppie posers.

I am not wrong. You are. These devices are no more connected than your and my computer are connected. We happen to have "browsable" and "downloadable" access to the same content - but we are not "interconnected" - we are in fact seperated by the very nature of the network we are on.

I happen to run an interpreter that can access the same content as you can - until I install some sftware component we are not "interconnected".

Wrong - they are service subscription dependent.

Well - again, considering how old the video is - it's not new currently.

And ifyou can't get past your obvious obsession with "virtual to physical" you are obviously not able to realise the gist of my entire supposition - if you read MY COMMENT with comprehension you would realize that the basis for the comment was that one assumes in later versions the ENTIRE SUITE of functionality is available on the ONE see-through device and that is is NOT RESTRICTED to needing to be on the substrate.

In your flawed opinion.

Agh fuckit you are just being an obtuse jackoff.
