No, they actually joked about how they never used to be able to come back for an encore because they used to smash all the gear :)

So this means The Who passed over Toronto (where I live) entirely... That's a switch -- they did at least five of their eighteen "farewell" shows there, if I remember correctly.

Hope they didn't play anything from "Endless Wire" ;-)

go phone snob go ! seriously it's just like 1996 with camera phones . At least in Canada and the USA it's like 1996 because people are using 1 megapixel cameraphones (or 2 megapixel iPhones) which take really bad pictures most of the time. Unlike the N95 5 megapixel which takes good pictures a lot more of the time!
(i was just recently in heathrow and helsinki and was amazed at the number of N95s around, there are basically zero N95s comparatively in Toronto, Vancouver and their airports!

"So what makes people think this tiny little, what does a RAZR have, 1.2 megapixels on a good day?"

Your photos above are 500x375 pixels - I make that less than 0.2 megapixels. Sure, they were more than that when you took them, but posting them at 0.2 megapixels doesn't do much for your point.

My first digital camera was 2 megapixels, but I only ever used it at 1.2 megapixels because 2mp photos took too long to write to the card. I've printed those photos at up to A4 and I bet they look better than anything you could produce with your N95.

Pixel dimensions are pretty much meaningless unless you're going to print at over A4 - lenses and sensors are what count. As mobile companies try to squeeze more pixels onto ever smaller sensors at shorter focal lengths, the picture is only likely to get worse. Never mind the marketing, do the physics! If I used a mobile-phone-sized camera, I really wouldn't want it to do more than about 2mp.
