Not true any more. The new rules allow you to carry on liquids purchased AFTER security and safety matches (but not lighters).
The hand carry-on size dimensions* are as follows:
* 56 centimetres long (approximately 22 inches)
* 45 centimetres high (approximately 17.5 inches)
* 25 centimetres deep (approximately 9.85 inches).
* This is the maximum bag size allowed through security. Smaller bag sizes may apply depending on which airline you travel with.
