The Inaugural Benjamin B. Ferencz Essay Competition
In 2012, in conjunction with the International Criminal Court at 10 conference, the Whitney R. Harris World Law Institute hosted the Benjamin B. Ferencz Essay Competition in honor of former Nuremberg Prosecutor Benjamin B. Ferencz. As a war crimes investigator during the liberation of the Nazi concentration camps, Ferencz gathered evidence of Nazi atrocities in preparation for trials by U.S. Military Commissions. After the war, he was recruited by Telford Taylor, an associate of Justice Robert Jackson, who had been appointed Chief of Counsel for a dozen subsequent proceedings at Nuremberg. Ferencz soon became the Chief Prosecutor in the Einsatzgruppen Case, in which 22 defendants were convicted for the brutal murder of more than a million innocent men, women and children. He was 27 years old at the time.
At Nuremberg, aggressive war-making was branded the "supreme international crime." Having seen the horrors of war first-hand, Ferencz could not have agreed more with this characterization, and has dedicated his life to seeking a more humane and just legal order. He has been a passionate advocate for the international rule of law and for the International Criminal Court, and a firm believer in the philosophy of former U.S. President Dwight D. Eisenhower, that: "In a very real sense, the world no longer has a choice between force and law. If civilization is to survive it must choose the rule of law."
This competition, held in honor of Benjamin B. Ferencz, addresses the very difficult issue of the relationship between crimes against humanity and the crime of aggression, both as a matter of substantive law and jurisdiction. In particular, given that the crime of aggression was not enforceable in the ICC, submitted essays addressed whether illegal uses of force, interstate or otherwise, resulting in significant loss of life may be prosecutable before the ICC as crimes against humanity.

The essay must address the following question: Under what conditions may acts that constitute illegal use of armed force and that result in the widespread or systematic attack upon a civilian population be prosecuted as crimes against humanity by the International Criminal Court, pursuant to the Rome Statute.
Contestants are encouraged to consider the following and develop the arguments set forth in the description below:
In June 2010, a conference took place in Kampala, Uganda, to review the Statute that had been adopted in Rome to govern the International Criminal Court (ICC). It was agreed that the new Court would exercise jurisdiction over "the most serious crimes of concern to the international community as a whole." Four categories of crimes were identified in article 5 of the Statute as falling within this jurisdiction: the crime of genocide, crimes against humanity, war crimes and the crime of aggression. However, the Court could only exercise its jurisdiction over the crime of aggression after a number of conditions had been fulfilled. One of the primary goals of the Review Conference in Kampala was to consider amending the Statute to add a definition of the crime of aggression and thereby close the gap in the ICC's jurisdiction. When the Kampala conference ended, a definition of aggression was adopted by consensus, now found in article 8 bis of the Rome Statute, but implementation of that definition was postponed until, at the earliest, 2017, meaning that the Court could not exercise jurisdiction over the crime of aggression until after that time. Thus, what the Nuremberg Tribunal in 1945 had condemned as "the supreme international crime" cannot currently be prosecuted at the ICC.
Article 7 of the Rome Statute sets forth a definition of crimes against humanity, and lists as predicate acts, among others, "murder," "torture," "enslavement," "rape" and "other inhumane acts of a similar character intentionally causing great suffering, or serious injury to body or to mental or physical health" (Article 7(1)(k)). No prior Security Council approval is required for prosecution of crimes against humanity assuming jurisdiction exists under article 13(a) or (c) of the Statute. Intent and knowledge are essential elements that must be proved, and pursuant to article 30(2), a person is deemed to have intent in relation to a consequence where either that person "means to cause that consequence or is aware that it will occur in the ordinary course of events."
Thus, the question arises whether individuals responsible for the illegal use of armed force, knowing that their actions will result in the killing of large numbers of civilians, may be held accountable for crimes against humanity under the spirit and letter of the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court.

Talk:GenLink for ARM9
Considering buying LS Pro and installing Gentoo. However, I don`t see the possibility of bricking the box in the manual you posted here. Is there some dangerous operation? Installing gentoo does not seem to be a problem, in worst case you place the original partitions in place and everything works as before .?? Or is there some flash-burning involved? Does LS Pro have the JTAG included?
no there are no flash related operations. only the UBoot bootloader is in the LS pro`s flash, everything else is on the hdd. if you use the debug mode of the firmware updater and uncheck the updating of "BOOT" then the Bootloader does not modified and only the initrd/kernel/hddrootfs gets updated. If anything else besides the bootloader gets messed up you can always fix it by connecting the hdd to your normal workstation. but thats the worst case and i did not have to do this for weeks now. Unfortunately there is no obvious JTAG port visible on the LS Pro board. But when we finally get our hands on the Kurobox pro which has this JTAG port we will try to follow the traces on it and compare them to the LS pro/LS Live ones...in hope to find a way to be able to unbrick the arm based linkstations via JTAG Mindbender 18:19, 15 April 2007 (EDT)
I just buy a fresh new Linkstation and wanna install gentoo. maybe I'ma dumb, but I don't get how to put LS in EM mode, so to upload the modified_initrd. As it comes out form the box, there no FTP and cannot see the Uboot port open with netcat.
Could you help me in this first step?
thanks a lot

After my release of iGangster, I learned more about coding and decided to develop a small test game to polish my skills. While I was coding this test game I thought of some mechanics that could be fun to play. I coded until I got a basic game which I then showed to my wife and friends. Most of the reactions were very positive and I decided to put some more work into it. The process went on for some weeks and I realized that I could make a great game out of this concept. That is how Push Panic was born.
I have been working on Push Panic since January 2010, first alpha testers where added in March 2010 and beta testers joined in April 2010. Ricardo also joined the project in April 2010. We have both learned a lot from this project, and it was huge fun developing it! We hope you guys like Push Panic as much as we do :)
Barry Kostjens & Ricardo de Zoete
Barry Kostjens is an independent developer for iOS apps from the Netherlands. Prior to developing Push Panic, Barry developed iGangster, his first game for the iPhone platform, which was also featured by Apple. The success of iGangster seeded Barry's dedication to learning more about Objective-C and coding, paving the way for the birth of Push Panic. In desperate need of a sophisticated graphics designer for Push Panic, Barry began searching on iPhone forums, where he found Ricardo de Zoete, who had the skills and knowledge in GFX to render the stunning graphics of Push Panic. Though the duo never met in person, they have joined together in a dynamic team to develop quality apps that paves the way for further creative innovations.

A police officer with eight years of experience, four in Raynham, has been promoted to the rank of sergeant.
Selectmen voted last week to promote Raynham Police Officer Brian Levitre to the rank of sergeant. The promotion was made after Sgt. Sally Westcoat retired from the town's police department, Selectmen Chairman Joseph Pacheco said.
Pacheco said the promotion was made with Raynham Police Chief James Donovan's recommendation and upon review of civil service test scores of potential candidates.
"Brian was the highest scorer," Pacheco said. "We always go with the highest scorer."
Levitre, who previously worked with the Fall River Police Department and, before that, in the private security industry, said he was "excited" about the new role.
"I'm excited to take on a new task," Levitre said. "I'm confident that I can uphold the standards in the leadership position."
Levitre said he has enjoyed his time serving Raynham for the past four years as a police officer and looks forward to the years to come.
"I like it," Levitre said of Raynham. "It's two different worlds between a city and the town. In a town, there is more opportunity to interact with more citizens."
Donovan said Levitre has "done an excellent job for us" during the last four years. Donovan said Levitre was one of the officers to lose his job in a round of layoffs in Fall River about four years ago, but the Raynham Police Department is happy he landed there.
"He's involved himself in our community," Donovan said. "Fall River had significant layoffs and he ended up coming to us. Since he's come here he has been very much involved in the police department honor guard, field training officers, installing child safety seats, being a photographer, assisting training recruits in the academy. He's assisted with the Raynham portion of Raynham Pride Day since he worked here."
Donovan said that Levitre, who has a bachelor's degree in criminal justice from Curry College, also has another advantage through his 10 years of experience in the private sector. Donovan said Levitre will serve the 26-officer department well in the future.
"I think he's going to be an asset to the department," Donovan said.
RAYNHAM Levitre promoted to Raynham police sergeant
A police officer with eight years of experience, four in Raynham, has been promoted to the rank of sergeant.

Wren & Owen's Happy Striped Room
Name: Wren (4) & Owen (17 months)
Location: San Diego, CA
We wanted to create a room that reflected our daughter's personality while staying somewhat gender neutral, since our kids will have to share a room eventually. I did not want to have to redecorate again when our son moves in with our daughter, all I want to do is add another bed!
Our daughter suggested the colors and specifically requested stripes. I painted the entire room while my husband was away on a business trip and my kids were asleep at night. The key to doing the stripes yourself is Frog tape and really taking your time measuring. I tend to want to see things done NOW and being patient with the measuring and prep work paid off.
My favorite part of the room would have to be the book racks by her bed — they are decorative for me, yet so useful for her since her books are literally at her fingertips when she is in bed and would like to read.

Yesterday the frum community in Antwerp went to the polls to elect a new rabbi. We, by contrast, were handed our rabbi on a plate in a graveyard. Quite literally. Ok the plate bit I made up but the graveyard is almost true and in fact the announcement was made at the previous rabbi's funeral. Or as Wiki puts it "The honorary officers of the UOHC announced the appointment of his youngest son, Rabbi Ephraim, as the new rabbinical head of the community."
How we would have cheered had it not been during the summer holidays when we were sunning ourselves in some summer camp rechristened, if that's the word, Stamford Hill-on-sea for a couple of weeks. Alas we weren't there and the officers who are honorary in name and name only had the field to themselves. They could have appointed a frog and we would have followed every hop and croak while persuading ourselves that we are the envy of the world. So they chose a dinosaur instead and we should be grateful to them for that. And to to enforce his pre-Neanderthal credentials, at his inauguration our Sanctified Leader duly delivered an exquisite disquisition on the topical subject of the Decapitated Calf.
In Antwerp they evidently do things differently. Rabbi Kreiswirth passed away almost 10 years ago and his seat has remained vacant ever since. There was talk of them nominating our own Dayan Ronnie Dunner as a candidate (or as he is sometimes fondly referred to, Dyno-RoD) but his community threatened to block his exit if he as much as left for an interview. Less kinder tongues wagged at the time that he declined when it transpired that there were others in the running. How the Antwerpians, or the Twerps, must have blessed their holy stars when Dunner travelled to India, saw the Taj Mahal and deciding he couldn't build his dear darling rebbetzen a hovel like that got her instead a synthetic sheitel without any chashash of Avoide Zore. Just imagine the smoocher he got on his return.
I digress. I digress. Antwerp has been without a rabbi for almost a decade and it appears none the worse for it. It has had an eiruv for very many years having had the good fortune not to have had a Padwa at its helm. Its fortunes have been declining of late with the diamond industry moving to India and no largesse from its government to match that which housing benefit throws our way. It is nonetheless a respectable community albeit reminiscent of a pale of settlement shtetl c.1890 and a shuttle service plies the sanctified Stamford Hill-Antwerp route several times a day which cannot be said even for Stamford Hill-Golders Green.
Recently a suitable candidate was found and the male burghers of the Flemish city were asked to express whether they are for or against him. It appears that King Leopold's countrymen know more of common suffrage than us dwellers in the shadow of the mother of parliaments. And so choose a leader they did and Rabbi Aharon Schiff duly won the vote.
Mazel Tov!
There are however 2 points on which I must sound off. The first is that according to this source (in Hebrew) 1263 members were entitled to cast their vote in Antwerp. This may be another explanation, besides the patently obvious one, why Padwa was not put to the vote. While the UOHC purports to speak for and to all of us every time something 'comes to their attention' in reality they have relatively few members and there are even fewer reasons why one would want to become a member. They'll rip you off for your meat, milk and marriage and ban your strawberries whether you're a member or not and as for burial they'll dump you in a water-logged bog reserved for members only. And without members it is rather difficult to hold an election so the next best thing was to slip him in while we were smeared with Amber Solaire.
And the next point is on the dinosaur comment I made earlier. The big story about town is of the local couple who've been arrested for allegedly drugging and abducting their daughter to take her out of Israel. They were taken off a plane bound for Bucharest and arrested. Bail has for the moment been refused.
The kneejerk defences are well under way. 'The girl is mad'. 'She has a boyfriend.' 'She is 21 with a mental age of 10.' 'You don't know what good parents they are.' Or simply, 'It can't be. You must hear the other side and you can never trust the Israeli media/police/judiciary for they all hate us'.'
What follows is a translation of a comment on an Israeli chareidi website, "The chareidi community in London is known primarily for being the most primitive and extreme of chareidi communities abroad. This community harboured in her midst the monster Elior Chen who tortured and abused small children in the name of religion. This community, the majority of which belongs to the extreme Satmar chasidim, suffers from a communal 'honour' syndrome and for the sake of honour all means are kosher. –What will people say?- This is of course the pretext for throwing the girl to the dogs in order to save her parents' skin. The facts on the ground are that the girl is intelligent, sharp and fun and only malicious people could descend to such sub-human conduct [to malign her]. And let us assume that it is true, I ask: may one abuse a mentally ill daughter? If she is indeed, as they put it, retarded may one cruelly inject her with drugs and abduct her with force? Stop putting on a straight face!"
It hurts when it comes from Israelis who are the maddest extremists of the lot. But that makes it no less true. And while I would quibble whether we are indeed worse than others we are generally rather behind with the times and perhaps it is time to catch up. And harbouring fewer rapists and paedophiles and not raising money for them wouldn't be a bad place to start.

Manchester United legend Paul Scholes has made a return to the bench – assisting U19 coach Nicky Butt on a game-by-game basis.
The midfield pair often partnered one-an-other at the heart of the Red Devils side in the 90s and early 00s, and have combined once again to teach help develop the Premier League champions' youngsters.
It's Butt's first taste of management, having worked closely with Warren Joyce and the Manchester United U21s in the past.
And, to help settle him settle into the job, he's called on the services of the 38-year-old club legend, who enjoyed two decades as a player at Old Trafford.
The club wrote on their official Twitter account: "U-19s boss Nicky Butt is joined on the bench by Paul Scholes, who is assisting Nicky on a game-by-game basis. #mufc"
Their first game together comes against Bayer Leverkusen, with the Bundesliga side's youth team making the trip to the Salford City Stadium in the UEFA Youth League ahead of the senior side's clash against Manchester United in the Champions League tonight (Tuesday).
United fans will be eager to see how Butt and Scholes get on in management following their success on the pitch, and it remains to be seen if they can follow other former players from the Sir Alex Ferguson era into a career in coaching.

Recently, Teddy Robertson posted on her blog:
"Surprisingly, the Flint store is very female. Of course, you see a lot of women in Home Depot and Lowes. They are selecting paint colors or lighting, or bathroom fixtures. At Harbor Freight women roam the drill bit aisles. And what's more, women—middle-aged women—are on the floor helping them with real tools. Maybe years back they would have worked in the shop. Today they work at Harbor Freight."
Today, November 14, is International Girls Day, and it's fitting that Harbor Freight Tools takes notice. The girls have been coming to HFT in growing numbers, sharing the checkout lines with the boys, carrying miter saws and cordless drills; on the Web, you now stumble across Girl Power blogs like Pink Toes & Power Tools and Ana White, sounding the alarm that women are taking over the home DIY projects.
- Pittsburgh 30 Ft. X 1″ QuikFind Tape Measure #69081 – You can never have too many tape measures around the house, and you'll like this guy because it displays the fractions. Not to say you're working with a dumbed-down tool, something akin to a Jitterbug cell phone, but rather something that helps determine measurements faster and more efficiently. The tape extends a long way before it falls, and you'll appreciate the rubber-wrapped case (not that you ever drop your tape measure, right?). Heavy-duty and helpful! $4.99
- Pittsburgh 7-Pc. Pliers Set #69355 – Pulling, pinching, stripping, bending. You can face all manner of tasks in the home, and these babies can be invaluable. And the quality-to-price ratio is NICE! 8.99
- 32-pc. Screwdriver Set #90764 – You'll probably put the most mileage on this set around the house as it accommodates most all domestic jobs, including a bendable snake unit that's awesome in hard-to-get-to areas! $7.99
- Pittsburgh 16 Oz. Claw Hammer With Fiberglass Handle #47872 – I'm sure you have a hammer somewhere in the house. Hammers are like tape measures; it's good to have a few around. Whatever you do, though, invest in a nice claw hammer. It'll do a good job driving in nails, but it';; also help you remove the bent ones if you make a mistake… which I'm sure never happens. Hammers are the great go-to's for hanging pictures, putting together modular furniture or small woodworking projects. This fiberglass one provides a comfortable grip and less shock than the wooden ones. $3.99
- Pittsburgh 64 Piece 1/4″, 3/8″ And 1/2″ Socket Set #67995 – For nuts and bolts, and screwing in lag bolts in your beams for heavy wall-hangings and earthquake straps, putting together the tyke's bike, or working on the car. You might think this set's a bit overkill, but you never know when you're going to need the odd-sized piece– and socket sets provide torque strength a mere wrench can't come close to. $31.99
- Pittsburgh 9″ Magnetic Torpedo Level #96676 – Take away the guesswork and eyeball calisthenics when trying to hang pictures or put up shelving. You'll learn fast what a godsend this simple tool really is. $7.99
- Fasten Pro Three-Way Tacker Staple Gun Kit #96755 – For everything from craft projects to reupholstering chairs, making wood box valances, putting up plastic sheeting, running cords along the wall, window screening, and other DIY projects. Another tool you'll love love love! $6.99
- U.S. General Tool Cart, Five Drawer, 700 Lb. Capacity #69397 – You'll need a place to store all of these handy tools and, take my word, you'll outgrow a toolbox almost immediately. A larger one on rollers– like this 5-drawer favorite– is great to move around your home, craft room, studio or garage. It gives you plenty of room to organize and quickly access the tool you need when you need it! $199.99
- Drill Master 3/8″ Cordless Drill/Driver With Keyless Chuck, 18 Volt #68239 – A rechargeable drill is essential to have around for your light-to-medium DIY projects around the house. They're light to carry and great for making holes, or using as a power screwdriver to speed up the fastening process. Got a remodeling project in your future? Get it! $19.99
- Chicago Electric 5″ Random Orbital Palm Sander #69857 – If you're restoring furniture, an old boat or other object of love, invest in an orbital sander. Great for getting a smooth finish on large surfaces, and the palm sander version gives you great control. $24.99
"Last year toward the end of summer Dennis came home with battery powered fly swatter he'd gotten on sale for $3.99 (reg. $7.99). We sat on the porch in a warm twilight sipping margaritas and swinging at mosquitoes. Can't beat Harbor Freight."
You go, girl.

Brothers hurt in marathon bombing retrace route
BOSTON (AP) — Two Boston-area brothers who each lost a right leg in the Boston Marathon bombings have retraced the marathon route on the anniversary in a relay walk-and-ride with relatives and friends.
Paul Norden and J.P. Norden crossed the marathon finish line in Boston's Back Bay neighborhood Tuesday evening, striding on their prosthetic legs.
Bystanders cheered as they had along the route from suburban Hopkinton. The trip began in the morning.
The Nordens are from Stoneham and are in their early 30s. They were injured as they watched the last year's race with friends outside a restaurant where the second of two bombs detonated. The walk was also a fundraiser for their charity.
The bombings killed three people and injured more than 260 others.

We asked Tia Mowry, child star of Sister, Sister with twin Tamera, and now starring on BET's The Game, to share her pregnancy experience. Mowry and husband Cory Hardrict are expecting their son in early July. Tune in to the STYLE network's new series Tia & Tamera, airing this August.
Sharing my pregnancy with my twin is the coolest thing in the world. Tamera actually gets to live through me vicariously. For example, she now knows what SHE will look like, when she decides to have a baby. That is a treat within itself! I mean, lets be real, growing up, I think all women find themselves standing in front of a mirror with a pillow under our shirts wondering what we would look like if we ever got knocked up, just for kicks and giggles. Well, not Tamera—she just has to look at me!
In addition, my sister seems to already be in love with my son, just as much as I am. [I think she secretly thinks my son is her son, too!] I mean, twins share everything, right? She is always kissing, rubbing, patting, and hugging my belly. She is addicted to the belly! Sometimes, it can be a little bit much—but hey—she gets a pass. She is my twin after all, and she is going to be a great aunt.
Plus: Celebrity Parents of Twins
I have been very honest with her about my pregnancy and its experiences, and now she tells me that I am a good source of birth control! I find it funny how I happen to be the first twin to go through everything. Marriage, and now a baby. So, the plus side to all of this, is that she gets to see what it is like—before she decides to dive in.
With that said, I am so relieved I am not having twins. I tell my mother almost every day I can't believe she was able to carry all that extra weight. Having one baby kick you in the ribs is one thing, but two!? Additionally, I am extremely hormonal now with one baby, so could you image double the hormones? That spells double trouble already. To add to the pot of extra hormones, instead of breast feeding one, you are breastfeeding for two, bathing two, hearing two babies cry at the same time, you get the picture. That's a lot of work! Now knowing what my mother went through times two, I give her so much credit. I give ALL moms credit! We are strong, beautiful, and wonderfully-made human beings.
Plus: Ways Motherhood Makes You a Celebrity
Speaking of strength, working while pregnant in my first trimester was killer. I can honestly say it was the most difficult things I have ever had to do in my life. I hid my pregnancy for the first trimester. I was working long 12 hour shooting days on The Game and was exhausted! Nine hours of sleep wouldn't do me any justice. Also while working, I was having crazy bouts of nausea that had me going to the bathroom every few hours. This became routine.Taping a show, working long hours, and being queasy at the same time was definitely a challenge for me. However, it taught me I can do anything I put my mind too and I am one strong cookie. All mothers are!
Even though my pregnancy has had its up and downs I am so excited about becoming a mother. I cannot wait to see my son's face and just give him a huge kiss! I look forward to seeing the world through his eyes and just providing him the love that he truly deserves. I can't wait to be a kid again and go to parks, amusement parks, and just have great birthday parties. I can't wait for my life to be changed forever!

MW; Crude falls 3% as traders watch dollar, rescue plan
By Polya Lesova, MarketWatch
NEW YORK (MarketWatch) -- Crude-oil futures fell nearly 3% Thursday, weighed down by gains in the U.S. dollar and worries about a slowdown in oil demand.
Traders are also closely watching the $700 billion rescue plan for the financial industry. The plan was approved by the U.S. Senate last night and the House of Representatives may now consider it on Friday. Read more.
Crude oil for November delivery dropped $2.65 to $95.88 a barrel in electronic trading on Globex.
Passage of the rescue plan by Congress "could potentially boost equities and support commodity markets in the short term," said Andrey Kryuchenkov, an analyst at Sucden Research, in a note.
However, "fears of slowing growth and low credit liquidity are at the forefront of investors' agenda," he said. "Growth fears are likely to cap gains in oil prices in the near future and persist until we start seeing a pick up in winter demand, with some improving economic data from the developed world."
Meanwhile, Merrill Lynch cut its 2009 oil price forecast to $90 a barrel from $107 a barrel and warned that a "synchronous global recession" could bring oil prices to $50 a barrel. It said U.S. oil demand is far outpacing its decline expectations, European demand is falling rapidly, and some of the emerging markets aren't keeping up either.
Plus, a string of fields in Saudi Arabia, Qatar and others will bring about 3 million barrels of oil a day in incremental capacity over the next 12 months.
In the currency markets, the U.S. dollar rose against most other major currencies, with the dollar index gaining 1.4% to 80.73.
The euro fell 0.8% against the dollar after the European Central Bank left its key interest rate unchanged at 4.25% on Thursday. See Currencies.
Dollar strength typically weighs on dollar-denominated commodities such as oil and gold.
On Wednesday, crude fell $1.78, or 1.8%, to $98.89 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange.
The U.S. Energy Department reported that crude supplies rose for the first time in six weeks, by 4.3 million barrels to 294.5 million barrels for the week ended Sept. 26.
Also on the Globex Thursday, November reformulated gasoline fell 6 cents to $2.30 a gallon and November heating oil dropped 6 cents to $2.79 a gallon.
November natural gas futures fell 1 cent to $7.71 per million British thermal units.
The Energy Department will release Thursday its weekly update on natural-gas supplies in storage.
Analysts at Strategic Energy & Economic Research expect to see an increase of 81 billion cubic feet for the week ended Sept. 26. But Global Insight is looking for a climb of 62 billion.

First of all, let me just say that it's one lusty, good looking device. It's as long as a traditional 3.5" PocketPC PDA (e.g. some recent iPaqs), but it's much thinner and less wide (because of its 2:3 screen instead of the PDA's 3:4). Overall, it's definitely a good sized device. Not too big, not too small either. And it's innovative too. Everything seems to work via multi-touch, a touchscreen-based input method (just make sure you stop eating potato chips from now on). The wide screen has a 320x480 resolution, which is the same resolution as some PalmOS PDAs have, and also the same resolution of some high-end Japanese phones. Overall though, the screen resolution is ahead of the curve compared to most smartphones sold today in Europe and US.
iPhone supports WiFi, Bluetooth 2.0+EDR and Quadband GSM/EDGE communications. It is a bit of a let down that iChat/WiFi-based video call is not supported via a front VGA camera, but I am pretty sure that this is a matter of time before it happens on a future (3G) model. The device also has a pretty good battery life, a 2MP camera, and it's surprisingly light at 135gr (most HTC smartphones are over 150 gr). It comes in two flavors of 4 and 8 GBs of flash storage.
What really strikes you though is its interface. Apple has used OSX as the basis of their OS, even if it's not really OSX. You obviously can't run any of your MacOSX apps on the iPhone, so saying that this phone "runs OSX" is not as accurate as saying "runs a mobile, modified and incompatible version of OSX". Regardless, this is one good looking UI they got there. Looking at the flash demos at Apple's site, everything just looks more beautiful than any smartphone out there today. I wouldn't even be surprised if the UI is hardware accelerated with QuartzExtreme using maybe a high-speed Intel XScale ARM CPU and a 16 MB Intel 3D card (same to what the Dell x50v/x51v uses), but I guess we won't know that unless we learn more about the device itself in the future.
Visual VoiceMail and SMS and photo management seem to be very nicely implemented, and the whole iPod-based UI has been massively reworked to look more impressive. Google Maps are included, although there is no real GPS support inside the device (and we don't know if it can be used with a Bluetooth-based GPS device). HTML-based email is a very strong plus, given the fact that very few smartphones actually support HTML email. The WebKit version of Safari is working a lot like Nokia's "minimap", where the user can zoom in and out of a page and focus on where he/she wants to read. While this is a very good feature, it won't be as good as my Dell x50v Opera-based browsing or the Nokia N770/N800 experience, because both of these devices use a higher resolution screen (but they don't have any GSM phone functionality, so things balance out).
There are a few stinky points with device. Steve mentioned nothing about an SDK. Personally, I do not consider a "smartphone" a phone that can't run native applications. I consider it instead a "high end feature phone". And no, I don't consider widgets to be as good as native apps because they don't give you the same level of control and system access as C/C++/ObjC or even a good implementation of Java/C# gives you. And speaking of Java, Steve mentioned nothing of a J2ME implementation on this phone, which means that you might not be able to run any of your games or applications that you are accustomed on any other cellphone (personally, I like Opera Mini, Yahoo! Go and... VideoPoker). And even if widgets are reworked to require less CPU and RAM (which is my main beef with them on my Powerbook), even then, Apple said nothing about actually allowing third party widgets to get installed.
The other stinky point is that of the text input method. Sorry, but I don't buy the current input method at all. As a person who owns over 10 touchscreen devices (from Moto-EZX-Montavista to WinMobile to Nokia to Palm to Zaurus), I know better than anyone that typing characters one by one is the worst thing in the world, even when on a large screen. YES, I did notice that the iPhone is predicting words, but this is not the problem. Instead, the problem is having your thumb trying to be precise when tapping on the keyboard to hit the right key! What Apple should have implemented in addition to their current solution, is something like TenGO, the BEST text input method for touchscreens ever created (which is a solution that can't be implemented as a widget btw as it requires real system access). In fact, if Apple could buy TenGo or implement their technology somehow, that would be an amazing thing and it would take out any possible "touchscreen fears" that people have. But as it is now, I am not happy with it.
Two more problems with device is the tactile feedback; that you don't get when you press a virtual button, and the fact that some usability issues remain (for example, there is no "send via Bluetooth" option when you try to send over an image -- as Steve demonstrated). Also, I saw nothing about MMS support... And what about wireless Stereo Bluetooth support (A2DP/AVRCP), a feature that many new phones support (all the new LG/Samsung ones for example)? And finally, does it have a user-replaceable battery as it is true for all other cellphones?
Rest assured though, most of the problems I mention here will be eventually fixed or added in future models. It's just that I personally I am a bit of a perfectionist --like Apple is too--, and so I will be waiting for a future model before I shed a minimum of $500 to get a new phone. If the iPhone will be sold unlocked and without a contract (I never buy locked phones, it's a matter of principle) there is a good chance that it will cost a minimum of $600 or even $700, and for that money, it better have all my pet peeves fixed.
Overall, I think that this product will sell well though and it will bring many new customers to Cingular/AT&T. It won't displace Nokia or Motorola, but it will find a niche of its own. And remember, being "successful" in the phone market does not mean that Apple must get 80% of that market share just like they currently have with the iPod. In the phone market, having a 5% share means more iPhones sold than iPods! I am confident that Apple not only will achieve this, but it will push the whole smartphone market to take over the plain feature-phone market.
The future is convergence, the future is bright!

TV review, photo gallery: 'Restless' on Sundance Channel
"Downton Abbey" star Michelle Dockery trades her evening gowns for bell-bottoms in "Restless" (8 p.m. CT Friday and Dec. 14, Sundance Channel; 3 stars out of 4), William Boyd's story of an English woman who learns that her mother is a complete stranger to her. The two-part miniseries written by Boyd from his 2006 novel jumps back and forth between 1939, when young Eva Delectorskaya (Hayley Atwell) begins her World War II espionage career under the tutelage of British spymaster Lucas Romer (Rufus Sewell), and 1976, when Sally Gilmartin (Charlotte Rampling), believing that her spy days have returned to haunt her, confesses her real name and past to her daughter, Ruth (Dockery). All three women are fantastic in this suspenseful story of love, betrayal and paranoia that should keep you guessing to the end. Come awards time, Atwell and Rampling could be competing against each other for playing the same woman. Curt Wagner, RedEye's Show Patrol Want more?
