I think this system will be a huge surprise, much like the DS; slow at first... like an acquired taste.

2006 Hopes:

=BluRay/PS3 duo will kill the competition this year!

=Nintendo Revolution will change the course of gaming with it's ingenuity and creativity and will guarantee appeal to those who strive to be different as long as they can get over the physical enthusiasm required to use the controller. I'm a big Nintendo fan and I was a little disappointed in the GameCube but what they lacked this year in sales they made up in proprietorship.

=Portable media players will use kinetic energy.

=UMD recorders and blank UMD media (for those who want to keep their PSPs legit and like to support corporations that bring entertainment fun and enjoyment to the people).

2007 Heaven:

=Kinetic powered portable computing and everything else electronic.

=Touch screen desktop monitors.

=Korea's Samsung joins the console wars.

=A product called Memory Jogger will assist in retrieving information in humans via a feature on the device to where you can select, from a menu, what type of memory you are trying to retrieve. The device would then flash a series of random specialized illustrations prescribed by psychological/socilogical professionals that would trigger the very memory you were stressing for. Or the device could, using the same menu interface, help retrieve a memory simply via electric impulses.
I actually just thought of this just now and it sounds pretty cool to me. Commercially, this could be very helpful with EVERYTHING. No more conversations where you couldn't remember something, no more, "it's on the tip of my tongue" incidents, a little less, "I wanna gonna tell you something IMPORTANT but I forgot!" moments. Limitless applications. More importantly this could help in crime fighting. Victims or witnesses can give near real-time description of crimes or violations, etc, etc. I have no clue how this would even be developed since I have reached my curiousity cap so... somebody out there steal this idea and bring it to life PLEASE!!! But mention that I had some part in it :) If this is a stupid idea to you guys please refrain from commenting.

=A clickless (mouse click) OS or version of an existing OS will be released www.dontclick.it
