i think the next generation will be only incremental improvements performance wise for MS and Sony. In terms of horse power increase the Wii 2 to Wii 1 comparison will be the biggest.
MS and Sony will be aiming for lower initial price point and remote control devices.
2009 is out of the question as its just too early
2010 is out of the question as well as this should be a highly profitable year for all 3 of the players.
2011 is the first possible launch date, dont be surprised if both Sony and MS release this year
