I don't see it happening this year. Power6 architecture is just too damned hot and needs 45nm process at least, not to mention a few GPU shrinks (the RSX is still 90nm).

Even then, the power brick would be pretty large for the unit. Maybe in 2009 but I don't think it will happen in this calendar year.

I thought all processors this generation were based off of the Power 3 architecture?

Power6, actually... Except the Wii. I think that's Power3, isn't it? Same tech as Apple's G3, IIRC.

What I said about the PS3 applies to the 360, too. Maybe even more so because of its tri-core chip.
