I thought I got excited about announcements from Apple. You should have heard the design team cheering. They all disappeared into the small conference room to watch the news come in from the Macworld keynote, and they sounded like a bunch of Husker fans watching the team pull off a trick play to win a championship game.

What were they hollering about? Only the coolest freakin' phone yet conceived. All of that low-level imaging and animation API-work that went into OSX has now been brought down to a video-iPod-phone with a Minority Report user-interface.

That's right. It runs OSX.

I've got nothing else to say. (*) Go see the demo. Flippin' sweet.

(*) Addendum: It's still pending FCC approval, so you'll have plenty of time to stop drooling before they're actually available.

Watch the keynote.
