Hingham, MA | You'd need a pretty big cell-phone to see the benefits of HD, I'd think... |

said by JamesPC  :Watch HDTV on my cell phone...COOL! the possibilities are endless. Who needs HD on a 3" or smaller display? I mean seriously wtf is the point? I keep reading arounds wbout being able to get HD on phones. "The mind wobbles" as to why it matters on that teeny display. To get enough pixel density to actually be called HD, any text or even images would be seem to project as being so freaking small that stuff would have to be almost unviewable. Additionally the CPU power needed to process that much data is beyond what these devices can reasonably handle w/o lots of frame drops and temps high enough to fry bacon or roast a chicken.
I am just not getting it from the tech on the receiving end, even if one accepts 480i or whatever as being "high definition". I mean the battery will last like 20-30mins processing that much data per sec.
I assume it must work because I recall reading places like Japan already have this or something along the same lines...but really, I just don't "get it"????!!???
