I have been following this service since day one. I have been onboard, and will get this service for sure so I can play all the good PC games and never have to upgrade again. 
 
Anyway this thing Onlive is going to BLOWUP and be a dominant force in the gaming world. I have a sneaky thought that MS is going to try and offer the same type of thing with the next Xbox. 
  
I love it when they said the servers are running in VA. I'm in MD so I'm within 50miles. So I expect buttery smooth lag free gaming for my service.

I appreciate your enthusiasm, but the naysayers won't really be "owned" until it's released and succeeds.

So they managed to defy latency issues AND create an encoder that's faster than the fastest h.264 encoder?  
 
Good for them.

This. Just have to wait and see what it can really do when the beta is running.
