So the image quality, video processing and time-to-first-(and- 
subsequent-)photo look like a big step up to me. I'm no photographic  
expert, mind you. Any photonerds care to weigh in, without disparaging  
it for not being as good as a DSLR of course?

And Siri looks like they might actually... No, I hardly dare say it...  
But is that a first glimpse of some voice control/TTS that's not  
*totally* useless? Let's see how it fares with a myriad different  
British accents...

Although that Siri demo: if they really have cracked the tough bit,  
what was with the "totally hands free and in your pocket" dictation  
that then asks you to confirm details on-screen? Did I miss something  
or did they really not think that bit through?
