    When do yall think Sony will start offering SLI or Crossfire, while offering portability (4-6 pounds maybe).

    I say mid-2011 or late-'12.

    I guess not very soon, since SLI imply more power consumption. What I think they'll do is to put more stream processors in the same die area, so they can shutdown most of them when you only need 2D or Video acceleration, and turn on demand the rest of them depending on the load.
