I think the important point here is not the speed or the accuracy of the 
mechanics and drive systems (stuff like this is already used in automated 
assembly), but the video image recognition and control software.  As CPU 
power increases then I see computer imaging getting more and more 
sophisticated and being able to do stuff like throwing that phone and 
catching it again.  Would be more impressive if they showed it 4 or 5 times 
uncut in a row, otherwise who knows it might have take 100 tries to get it 
to work.
