"Dave, although you took very thorough precautions in the pod against my hearing you, I could see your lips move"

Sounds interesting but I'm kind of skeptical on the lip reading, unless we're talking another "only works well with English" type thing. The increased bandwidth, etc. and higher resolution though all make sense.

I mean I'd like the lip reading to be true but that seems an awfully tough challenge from the worldwide perspective if you're talking reading lips for multiple languages and dialects.

Sounds a wee bit like the initial over promise/under deliver with Kinect with videos of scanning anything you wanted in and so on.

By the sound of it, I think the lip reading is merely an example to illustrate the precision it will have. It doesn't actually say they will be doing it.
