"Not worthy of a press conference"? Are you effing kidding me? We forgive Giz for the immaturity, the stupid pranks, the wacky posts, because at the end of the day, we get something approximating truth about new gadgets and cool technology. Giz used to be the Jon Stewart of gadget blogs: having fun, puncturing…

I understand that the effective resolution is about 2 megapixels, so you're not going to get large, high resolution images.
