So, you admit to using an iPhone, and take offense at what the video implies (i.e. that iPhone users such as yourself spend all their time taking photos of their food).

I lol'd, even though the joke is like 15 years old.

The first thing I thought of when watching this: Mentally Handicapped Rooster

It does move from water onto land, with no exploding pontoons, though overland travel over any distance is still a question mark.

Gizmodo thinks my Win7 PC running Firefox is an iPad?

(EDIT: beaten to it by two commenters. I really need to speed up my typing!)

Yep. Apparently one of the researchers on the team is Korean, Chung Changhyun. Lead researcher is still Japanese, though (Motomu Nakashima).
