I don't know if the demo guy lied or if he's an idiot.

He said something to the effect of "You really get the full effect of the 3" screen and you can see all the artists" blah blah blah.

Ummmm... Making the screen bigger didn't improve the resolution over, say, an iPod, so in reality, the 3" screen makes no difference whatsoever. When playing music, 2/3 of the screen is taken up by a covershot of the album. Do we really need a 3" screen at 240 x 320 for that?

God, so many weird decisions on this thing...

Anyway, this is still the question they aren't answering that I NEED answered:

Is WiFi based data encrypted? Jubelirer responded that he wasn't sure about the technical details, but that the team was focused on security to make sure data flowing back and forth was protected. It should be a rule that there's a hardcore developer in the room when a marketing guy is giving a demo. ;-)


Yes or no, folks. It really isn't that complicated.
