I could see that technology being a cool optional gimmick for some things on the phone, but for it being used to control everything on the phone would suck.

ya that's a pretty useless feature, i'd rather just push buttons. i dunno how many different commands you could make either, like what if instead of turning your phone on silent you turned on the speakerphone. cuz it looks like he's using almost the same guestures for the commands
