Small sensor video days numbered?

Who is going invest any real money in a camera shooting with a 1/2.3"or
worse sensor size once all DSLR's have larger ones and better video cameras
sport micro 4/3rd or similar sized sensors? Even the director who used the
Canon 5DII to shoot the House episode said that he sees the demise of the
smaller sensor (in professional's case, smaller than FF) in the future.
Not much you can do expressively with a camera that shows every single
thing in focus from 4ft to infinity.

"FF" isn't 36x24 - it's much closer to APS-c for just about every movie
made over the last 20 years.
They use expert focus-pullers amongst the crew operating the camera,
pre-measure focus shifts in a scene, and perhaps need many takes of the
same shot to nail focus.
For general video use, I'd suggest that APS-c and 35mm formats are
biting off way more than the average punter can chew.
Of course for "scenery pans" and similar shots and/or stopped right
down, there's no problem, but for general use for "home video" and a lot
of documentary/news shooting, shallow DOF is much more of a problem than
a benefit.

Apple does it again!

Apple announced today that it has developed a breast implant
that can store and play music. A pair of "iTits" will cost between $600
& $1000, depending on cup and speaker size. This is considered a major
social breakthrough, because women are always complaining about men
staring at their breasts and not listening to them.

Are they like the accordion, the so-called "squeeze box"? Or perhaps a
better description would be "squeeze boobs". And is it possible to play
two-part harmony on them?
