Major questions unanswered....

Solid specs, but they really danced around all of the important details.

1) How does the UI actually perform? Despite all of the hype, I didn't see any emphasis that it will "run like Calamari." In fact, other than the ripped-from-WebOS multitasking scheme, I don't know how the UI is even supposed to work- the video sorta-kinda dances around that. If this UI is so great, why wasn't it shown?

2) What's the data plan if you tether to a Blackberry? Why did they dance around this? Will it be fast enough to actually stream video if it's a BT PAN link?

3) Can you Video chat with the two cameras?

4) What's the estimated battery life? Why is there absolutely no mention of this? Not good.

There was a time I used to give RIM the benefit of the doubt. That was before they decided to give us the Storm.
