I agree with Protophore. Comcast has to know darn well that broadband traffic trends upward, and within a couple years this "data tax" is going to be sucking money from everybody - Bill Gates to Aunt Edna.

If the rest of the telecoms follow suit, it will soon put an end to the concept of the Internet as a democratizer and turn it into another class-based system.

Because customers' monthly fees go into R&D, there's an implied contract that their services will continue to improve. This is a violation of that implied (not written or legally binding) contract.

It'll be a scathing indictment of the state of U.S. capitalism if a competitor doesn't step in and offer customers better service for lower costs.

Ironic that a video on information overload is an hour long, eh?

While I'm all for Motus and all these other companies piggybacking off of Nintendo and exploring this technology, it should still be said that these aren't REALLY revolutionary: you're still moving your hands to control an avatar. In fact, I think the Wii-mote is much LESS efficient than traditional analog controls, because (a) there's a lag time - "latency" - and (b) it requires more motion than an analog stick.

Nintendo's always been at the tip of the tech spear in gaming, particularly with controllers (first D-pad, analog stick, and now the Wii-mote), but, when push comes to shove, this is an incremental advancement, not a revolution.

I think the next MAJOR controller revolution will be when we control game data via neurological sensors.
