That's a VERY GOOD quality version. Thank you.

But I have to make a note here; A LOT of Freepers are concerned it was a SINGLE SHEET OF PAPER. Well, from what I could see in the video from the link you posted, it was NOT a single sheet of paper.

It was an ENTIRE BUNDLE OF 3x5 CARDS ! It appears to be over one half an inch thick ! As he places the stack on the podium he starts to separate them and organize them as he looks down at them, then he looks up at the audience and then the movie ends.

I wonder if President Bush was so taken aback by this flagrant disregard for agreed upon rules, that that may have distracted W for the first part of this dog and pony show.

What is needed is a quantitative measurement estimate of the object based on the enhanced resolution stills. If the object measures out as 5 inches in length then it is likely a 3 x 5 card.

I agree! And I know there is the fear of looking like a crybaby, but someone from the Bush camp should say something publicly. Cheney, for instance, at the start of the debate tomorrow. He should say, look, there is video of Kerry obviously taking something out of his pocket to use. Regardless of what it was, it was against the rules of the debate. Maybe President Bush doesn't want to make a stink over it, but that kind of thing makes me angry.

Just MHO...

If it was that thick, the question becomes was it a Blackberry or other PDA capable of displaying text sent by cellphone signal.
