I view the Cell industry in the same light as the PC industry. When was the last time you cared about the next INTC cpu. 1.3 gig, 1.5, 1.8 etc etc. your eyes start to glaze over in apathy toward what looks to be a technological advanced that is not solving or improving the users experience.

I think the mobile phone industry now is more like where the PC industry was when the processors running below 100 Mhz. IN that era and the years that followed, users salivated at the thought of faster processors, bigger disks and more memory, and they did run out in droves to buy up the newest models. The increased performance did, in fact, enable the usage of many new applications too sluggish to use earlier.
