Questions for Epic?

Heh, Nappe, I was thinking of pinball, too. Either that or Jazz Jackrabbit. Maybe JJ Pinball? 
Dave, I can't wait to see if you teased any Xb2 (and hence R500-ish) info out of them. GamesDomain managed to finagle this gem out of Tim:
"We have the engine running really well on the development kit for one next-generation console."
which makes for an interesting contrast to the "about 25 to 30 frames per second" of the 6800[U, I'm guessing], that Sr. Sweeney describes as "not incredibly fast." I'm trying to figure out if I can compare "really well" to "not incredible fast" in any reasonable manner.
A PR blitz for Epic is interesting this far out from their projected release date. Do they really pick up engine licensees with these sorts of interviews, or is this just a typical consumer-consciousness exercise? And does Tim look forward to these press junkets, given the expected over-analysis given to his replies?
Well, maybe you can save those for your next interview.

Well, was SM3.0/+ confirmed, or is it still just assumed? I'd also be surprised if a console would outperform a high-end PC with a 6800U, so I'm not sure if Tim's performance comments are at all comparable ("really well" for a console, or in general?).
But I don't really keep up with consoles as much as with PC kit, so sorry if I'm asking the already obvious. I mean, I know about the leaked diagram and the dev kits, but Tim's performance assessment surprised me.

You guys ever consider open sourcing the Unreal 1 tools? I doubt you stand to lose much from such an action
