10:40AM: Higher-res doesn't seem as magical as they claimed it to be. Sure, there's a difference, but I don't think I'd be willing to sacrifice screen real-estate for it. The new display is smaller than the 3GS'.
I'll never go back to a smaller screen having owned the EVO.

Was not impressed in the slightest about what they chose to highlight in terms of software. Guitar Hero, Steve? Really? How about real turn-by-turn navigation? You know, something useful.
Oh god I just got to the part where it failed to load webpages. Those poor Apple fanboys are going to have to come up with excuses now.

Steve Jobs 10:41AM "You know you could help me out, if you're on WiFi if you could just get off... well we're having a little problem here." Oh boy, the iPhone 4 is NOT loading.
10:42AM: Glitch! Yes! Gotta love it! So mauch for Apple's reliability. Couldn't show a comparison with the OS 4 in web surfing.
10:42AM "Okay, we're going to switch over to some backups here, I have a feeling we might have the same problem..." Deadly silent here. Oooh, error ballon about the dock connector! "Well geez..." Wow.
10:43AM Someone is going down for this network glitch.
10:43AM "I'm afraid we have a problem and I'm not going to be able to show you much today... let's just go take a look at some photos here... take a look at that." Wow, this is striking -- huge difference in quality.

So far it's been all about looking better (apps, device), now what about functionality, performance, battery life, OS features?!
10:46AM "It makes it so your apps run automatically on this, but it renders your text and controls in the higher resolution. Your apps look even better, but if you do a little bit of work, then they will look stunning. So we suggest that you do that. So that is the Retina Display. Awesome text, awesome images, and awesome video. We think this will set the standard, and no one is going to come close." The arrogance of the last sentence is laughable.

Ugh, other manufacturers have almost an extra inch fo screen estate to play around with resolution. Trust me, someone will, this year even.

10:48AM "Because we've been able to make the batter bigger and because the A4 is so good, we've improved the battery life. 7 hours of 3G talk, 6 hours of 3G browsing, 10 hours of WiFi browsing, 10 hours of video, 40 hours of music..."
