No mention of any graphics upgrade in this review. Is it still 320*240, or 240 wide screen, and what about the frame rate? It could be something I throw $10 at down the line.

Here's some stuff you might find interesting that tells a little bit more about that:

(this one also mentions the jet fighter bit)

That last one is quite a bit of text and information, but hey: if the topic interests you, then you might still find it an entertaining read, nonetheless.

This happens with jet fighter pilots, for example. They get VERY specific training to amp up their vision in that regard.

As for a kind of variable frame rate: you should/could look up how vision works and how the brain complements what we actually see to make it into a complete picture. We actually only see a small part of what's around us, and the brain fills in the blanks in a way that makes sense.

So, instead of wondering about life having any kind of frame rate, it's actually more interesting (in my opinion) how the world REALLY looks, or how it would look, if our brain didn't augment the picture for us. And slo-mo's/bullet time events also happen in real life.

Particularly in stressful situations, such as when adrenaline kicks in, life around you either seems to go faster or slower, although that's of course only individual perception, but it does affect how we see things.

Things getting sharper is just the eye lenses getting tightened/re-focused: they are in a relaxed, unfocused state when you sleep.

And to answer your next possible question: yes, I am indeed kind of a science freak... ;)

Perhaps you already knew, but you know what I find the funniest thing about this whole frame rate discussion in general? That it's mostly pointless, because neither do human eyes see in a certain frame rate, nor does the brain interpret the information that it gets from the eyes as a certain number of frames per second.

The only thing that works with frames per second, is the media itself, whether that be games or movies/tv shows/series, so artificial sources, if you will, but life itself, and what we (visually) experience of it, isn't tied to any specific number of frames per second... ;)
