No, I don't. Video bandwidth is has to do putting the images on the screen in front of me.

It'd be nice to have the PowerVR to help render those images behind the scenes, so that even if we can't shove too many images through to the screen, we can still render 3D faster and more efficiently using the chip inside than any software.

Besides, it's of no importance that it may not be practical to implement. What's of importance is that I paid for it and that I can't use it, even if I simply want to tinker and brick my damnedable tablet in the process.

*Edit*
The drivers suck? That's an excuse from Nokia? Where?

Don't "..you pine for the days when men were men and wrote their own device drivers?"
