Has our other one phoned home yet?

Curiosity is back to drilling but NASA is still waiting for Opportunity to wake up and call home. Hasnt yet...but I guess with the current weather on mars, they are hoping the winds will finish blowing off all the dirt on the solar panels and the rover will begin to power back up.

No live stream, Mars is about 12 light minutes away.

Technically its either already crashed, or landed.
