Stil instances the gesture interface, and that makes sense (though the
"browser wars" scenario fits well). But is the difference between the
web-based product and the local app as significant as the difference
between radio and TV? It sounds like overstating the case to me, though
I don't own a Jesus Phone so I can't really say.
