I am wondering the future of Intel's new Thunderbolt (Light Peak) technology. Apple was the first to start shipping this product and supposedly the home entertainment market might be releasing various products to connect using this interface. Future? Intel was showing a demo where they were streaming Bluray content as well as other data at the same time. I am wondering how this technology is going to alter the video and audio markets both pro and consumer.

I am also surprised that Apple has shipped a version of the Apple TV with the Marvell chip that can upscale 720p to 1080p. I remember a while back around the time when the F80 first shipped that Meridian was working on an iPod adapter to upscale video from an iPod from 720p to 1080p, but I never saw the product being actually released.
