Toshiba Cell demo @ CEATEC JAPAN 2005

[Carl B]

It's starting to become easy to see how and where CELL can be used in an everyday environment.

Well I don't know about *everyday*, but it's clear that there are potential uses.

Well, I can imagine that they would use the micro cells in mobile technology. And maybe they'd use a scaled down version to decode HD video in Blu-Ray players...

Gack. I'm running the video on a PC at work and it still buffers out, but this time right before the CELL demonstration. I mean WTF? What's with the shoddy streaming? Use quicktime or MPEG streams please!

It's really not worth the hassle. It just shows a picture being constructed layer by layer, much quicker when they show the Cell. It's a visible 100-150x faster. That's as much as you need know. There's nothing else in that clip worth mentioning that hasn't been mentioned.

Well when I say everyday I mean used my medical doctors, people in the military, etc. Of course if Mercury gets its way the CELL will be used everyday (not including the PS3 of course).
