Some info:

-Tentative release date of June 2012.
-Controller screen resolution of 800x500.
-Can play games, watch movies, and more without turning on the TV by just streaming them to the controllers. Can stream to multiple controllers at once.
-Each controller acts a terminal, with the console doing all of the calculations to reduce latency, controller cost, and bandwidth requirements.

Isn't that what Onlive is ment to do but on a smaller scale (home vs country/planet)?

And the resolution of the controllers' screen is not a TV resolution : 16:9 = 1.77 / 800:500 = 1.6 so is 16:10...

I'm holding judgement unitl E3, but if this is true Wii2 needs to be way more powerful than 360/PS3 (Mario Kart with 4 players using  not the TV but the controllers' screens means a resolution equivalent of 3200x2000, and MK needs to run at 60fps)
