As it happens, the US -- as well as Britain and Germany, two of the coalition partners -- has signed such a treaty. The Kellogg-Briand Pact was created in 1929 to renounce war as "an instrument of national policy", barring acts of self-defence. The treaty remains in force to this day.

Of course, whether the argument can be made that invading Afghanistan could be considered self-defence is a different question. But for the signatories of this treaty, war outside the parameters of self-defence is indeed illegal.

Not true. The Droid Eris, like all variants of the HTC Hero, has 288 MB of RAM. This is more than, say, the Motorola Droid, which only has 256 MB of RAM. Given that the Droid was more or less designed to run Android 2, I can see how the Droid Eris can run it smoothly.

There are very few Android phones that have 128 MB of RAM; even the Dream/G1 has 192 MB. The only Android phones I've seen that have 128 MB of RAM have been the Chinese knockoff phones one occasionally finds on Engadget. Like this one.
