In 2007, if you said you were going to download an app to edit a high definition movie on your smartphone you'd be institutionalized.
Why? I don't recall the first time I saw a phone that came with video editing software, but I'm pretty sure it was before 2007. So if someone had said "in a few years this software will be easier to use and can edit even higher resolution video than it can today", I would have replied, "well, that sounds obvious"
Interesting, didn't know that. It makes me wonder if the success Apple has had in mobile is due to their better understanding of software. Has Sony/Ericsson iterated on their video editing feature? Apple definitely gets that software is never done; I can't think of another mobile device company that constantly improves not only the core (i.e. OS) software but also improves its value adds (iBooks, GarageBand, iMovie, iWork, Remote, etc...) RIM comes to mind, but I don't have much experience with RIM devices.
