They did this with the Nintendo DSi back in 2009.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h5QSclrIdlE&feature=player_embedded
The game is available in the DSi Ware Store (called Looksley's Line Up). It�s quite funny because the changing of the perspective will reveal the solutions to each diorama and the effect is done quite well.
Back then when Nintendo announced that their next iteration would feature 3d I just thought that they would implement this form of "pseudo" 3d in every game. The problem in real life: You only get the 3d effect when you move your head or your device - So it�s the totally opposite concept of the stereoscopic screens like in the 3ds or some new android phones where you can only see the effect when you look straight on the device! You have to experience both - Funny thing: You can download the DSi game on the 3DS and play it there and afterwards some 3DS 3d game to really get the idea how the two techniques behave in real life. Obviously both have their advantages!
What would be impressive is some combination of the two: "Real" 3D imaging like on the 3ds combined with headtracking..
EDIT: Some of the problems with Jonny Lees awesome concepts: You can only do it alone, the effect doesn�t work if more people are staring at the tv, and it isn�t possible with movies it�s only possible with real time rendered objects! As you can see the stadium at the end is totally flat, as opposed to how the stadium would look like with glasses and shot with a 3d camera.
But after getting my 3ds last week (together with PES 2011) I have to conclude that the 3d of the 3ds is better and more impressive even though my eyes start to hurt after playing for an hour or so..
Because they achieved this game with the DSi (133 Mhz ARM) I don�t think that it taxes the cpu very much..

Definitely Will Happen:
�Mail and iCal updated to resemble Mobile Me
�Interface updated to resemble Mobile Me (more helvetica, less gloss)
Would Be Nice:
�Major focus on graphics performance. Perhaps of a way for an 3D App (i.e a game) to monopolize the CPU and GPU, like in Windows.
�Dropstack and tabs in Finder, to obviate the need for Path Finder (for me)
� New File System, whatever they started to work on after the ZFS licensing fell through.
� Bring back the normal audio/video controls in the Finder
� Tags
� iChat removed from the OS. New Mac and Windows versions with FaceTime, available immediately.
� Faster way to switch to Bootcamp in the Apple Menu (this was a feature in a beta, and they took it out.)
� Better-looking folder icons with COLOR that stand out.
� Resolution independence
� Quicktime X with 7's features; Quicktime 7 gone
Not Counting On It:
� Editable Apple Menu, like in days of old
� Copy and Paste in Finder
� A better looking, flatter bottom dock without the stupid reflections (I have mine set to the 2D version now)
� Blu-ray support
I would really like to see a iCal & Mail to resemble Mobile Me.
But that thing your not counting on, Blu ray support. Yeah your right, don't count on that.

So which do you prefer?
That's a bit of a hard call (do I prefer SlingBox or EyeTV?). I like SlingBox because it works without leaving my Mac running. However, the EyeTV supports recording and offers streaming over 3G. What I'd really like is a hardware product that offered both. Kind of like an AppleTV that I could keep at home and that allowed streaming over 3G. Unfortunately, I don't think Apple will ever offer an AppleTV-like product that supports recording and which offers either a cable card or a built-in tuner.
I guess the only reasonable Mac-centric solution would be a Mac mini paired with the EyeTV.

I think this law is a Good Thing. It's obvious that a certain subset of Muslims are going to have to dragged into the modern age and it's gotta start somewhere.
Why should anybody be "dragged into the modern age" simply over how they dress?
Don't you value personal freedom?

Anything wrong with that?
Yes. Very few survive.
Why does Lee continue to bury his head in the sand and ignore the FACTS that conservatives give FAR more money, time, blood to charity than liberals do. They also give a higher percentage of their own wealth to charity. Maybe it's just easier to continue and live a lie that all Republicans are only concerned with themselves even though the evidence is to the contrary. Yep, only communists and socialists care about other people. Only people who think government is the solution to all of our problems care about other people.
Oh what a tangled web we weave.
Why does fivepoint ignore things like what just happened in Wisconsin, when Republicans gave corporations huge tax breaks and caused a huge budget hole that they filled by reducing benefits and salaries for teachers of all people? Oh what a tangled web we weave.

I've been reading through this thread and noticed how nearly everyone is focused on Apple entering the "cell phone" market. I can't believe how the majority of you actually feel that Apple will make a cell phone? And you're all going to ditch your RAZR when it comes out...
Apple is not going to, and will never, enter the cell phone market. They are designing a WiFi phone to compete with the new VoIP phones that are emerging: http://tools.netgear.com/skype/, http://news.zdnet.co.uk/communications/wireless/0,39020348,39187936,00.htm. Does the name "iChat Mobile" making anymore sense now?
You can quote me on that!

I don't think they should add cut and paste because it's metaphorically confusing (and they never will add it for this reason), but a Path Finder-like drop stack (which is essentially the same thing, but with visual cues) would be very nice.
A Path Finder-like split view is would also be very handy for moving files.
The OS doesn't need built-in social media integration. There are plenty of twitter clients, and the official Facebook Notifications menu bar item is fine.

Looks like it clears out the historic data.

Android is not a consistent platform. A huge chunk of that "market share" is running 1.6 and is not compatible with anything in the Market. What I said is true. What you said sounds like a desperate attempt to redefine winning.
Why does what you said matter. It has been true over a year and App sales on Android are still less then 10% of iOS.
PS. The Android US "market share" slipped 5% in the last quarter and the iPhone went up.
These comparison of a single device against a loose collection of largely incompatible devices is growing tiresome.
You simply can not read and have no idea what you are talking about.
I made no mistakes. There is not a phone in the world that sold more then the Phone. More people bought an iPhone then any other phone. If you see someone with a phone, it is more likely an iPhone then any other kind of phone. Not more likely then all other kinds of phones.
If someone came up to you and said, I purchased a phone in the last year and Iwill give you 5 million dollars if you can guess what it is, you would say an iPhone. Unless you were a moron.
Apple has, in total sold a little more than 100 million iPhones (http://mashable.com/2011/03/02/100-million-iphones/). (March 2011)
Anyway.
Nokia has sold over 200 million (http://www.engadget.com/2007/05/07/nokias-1100-handset-over-200-million-served/) of the 1100 and it's heirs. (And this was back in they are still being sold...)
So, I guess you are the moron. Sorry.
Edit
What differs between the Nokia 110x models:
The 1100a operates on the GSM-900/1800 network.
The 1100b operates on the GSM-850/1900 network
The 1100i adds a built-in Nokia prepaid tracker
The 1101 replaces the green backlighting with a white backlighting and adds a simple WAP 1.1 browser
The 1108 also replaces the green backlighting with a white backlighting.
Edit2:
Scratch 200 million. It's 250 million (http://www.scifacts.net/709/with_250_million_units_sold_nokia_1100_is_the_best_selling_consumer_electronics_device_in_the_world) . (March 2011)
And Nokia has sold 126 million of the 3310 and its heirs.
Without any doubt, you really are the moron.
Edit3:
There are five variants in the 1100 series, so if we divided them up in five shares, that means that one of them must have sold at least 50 million.
But if we do that then we would have to divide the 100 million iPhones among the original, the 3G, the 3GS, the 4, the 4 CDMA, and the White 4. Since the difference between these are greater than between the variants of the 1100.

remember though that the itching is your body healing. like when you are getting a scab you can't scratch at it and let it flake off before its ready, otherwise you body is always in a state of healing. so itching is good, means that your body is repairing itself.
it is barely noticeable, they should let you keep it. :D

Why is it so damn hard to get it that Mac Pro is overpriced compared to e.g. Dell's offerings?! :confused:
On the low end, yes. On the high end (Skulltrail+X5600), no. Unless you think maybe OS X isn't worth 200.00 extra. But hw isn't very impressive if you are unhappy running your OS. Still would rather have a PB G4 than a Core i7 Dell laptop.

Following your logic you should not use Word 2011 (or any other version on any OS) either. It has not and never had a build in bibliography tool. And I cannot count the very basic citation function as a bibliography tool. I don't know what obscure third party programmes you are referring to by "copy & paste", but have you ever heard of "Endnote"? It is what most students at universities across the globe use and not only works with Word, but also Pages. There are similar apps of course, some even free. Endnote for example works like a plugin in your word processor (no advertising, it's just the programme I personally know best). No need to copy & paste. And why would a third party app spoil iWork for you? Even for LATEX editors it would make sense to use a third party tool to manage bibliography in order to directly link to the database (e.g. PubMed) to avoid copy & paste.
But what you have not considered is that Word is getting abysmal when you:
