Looks cool but I can't help but notice all the times he tried to do something and it didn't happen. No big deal when you get a new toy but after a few hours/days when you actually start using it and realize that you have to repeat your 'commands' it's going to start to suck.
Good observation, I figured people would point this out. But he's hitting the screen with the side of his index finger which is not the best way to do it. The think has been around for less than 24 hours, and has a learning curve, just like all new cell phones. Go to an Apple store and mess around with one, try it yourself!
I agree but i do just think it's the nature of the video. If I were using it I'd probably hold it witth both hands and use my thumbs, which I would assume to be much more effective. He's using the side of a single finger to try and be unobtrusive to the video and I think that's why he misses so much.
