I'm already pissed about not having flying cars, if playstation 9 doesn't alter my brainwaves and project a world into my brain then I'm going to burn their fucking headquarters down.

Very cool, thanks for the pic. Looking forward to the days, where you can wear a device like a wristwatch and play games, video phone, the whole nine.
Ahhh, how wonderful technology really is, to bad it is going to KILL us all.

Not cool, all it is is a peice of plastic rotating while computer projects things onto it at the right moment to appear 3-D.
I still want my flying car, but after September 11th I think we all understand why we can't have those. Not to mention the fact that when a flying car breaks down, it can't pull over, instead it falls into your house..... |

I never thought of the ramifications of a stall while in a flying car.. perhaps parachutes should be standard equipment? Ive got thie great mental image now... nice suburban house, picket fence, kids playing in the street, and then in a fraction of a second, *WHAM*, a car takes out the middle of a house, cratering it. And the kids just look at it and giggle at the poor boy whose house it was... |

Haha, that thing looks sweet just gotta hope you have 10000 dollars to play with and also, controling it may suck unless its like a virtual thing since you would be playing a 3d game from a 3d world would look weird and control odd. But it looks sweet none the less

mmm.. a Neural interface would be great.. something that plugs into the back of your neck, which I think thejoker130 is talking about...

I was looking for another link that I found some months back via fark.com regarding a different technology that was being developed that displayed the 3d image without a surrounding globe or fog. I can't seem to find it now.
I remember it was something like: o3technology.com but that's not right.
