Indeed, not quite ready for prime time.  The webgl spec is a month old!

Also, as I look into more GPU facts, one is that on some machines it works 
poorly.  I believe, for example, on my MBA, there is a stunt where the GPU 
graphics memory is really part of the main RAM, thus the GPU is less efficient, 
.. and hotter.

But it is really surprising how fast HTML5 and WebGL are improving every day.  
And believe it or not, that slide set will work on many modern phones.
