Stunning stuff. I was hoping for more talk on more immediate technologies such as real-time raytracing (you think water and light are cool now, just wait till we get the computing power to make use of some of this stuff). But definitely, more kinetic systems of gameplay are the future, as seen in the Wii.

Granted, the level of kinetics might reach levels of The Matrix, but hey, what can you do.

I'm decently sure the implanting of identifiable computing is going to raise some privacy concerns. Already, there's a good score of people avoiding buying instant-pass toll buttons that automatically charge bridge fair to your account (and let you not stop at a toll booth) because they contain RFID tags.

Also, being a CS student, I sure as hell am not letting anyone implant devices with buggy firmware into my head. I'd be one buffer-overflow from a coma .

Very cool stuff though!
