IBM's Nintendo PowerPC might yet be under this year's XMAS tree

Nintendo's (Tokyo) Space World 8/24 is "Dolphin's" rumored announcement date :

dailyradar.com

Last year it was expected to be worth $1 bln to IBM :

Wonder if IBM's Via Voice or hard disk storage will eventually make it worth more ?

Probably not from Nintendo directly , who plans DVD I/O , but the rumor includes a internet hookup called "Staroad".

If Kodak and others use/add IBM's new mini disk with a similar PowerPC device , it could be the basis for much more IBM revenue:

Nintendo's last news on the Dolphin deferred it until 2001 so this is speculation . Interesting that Nintendo never revealed the exact reason for the delay.
