It all seems like a fantastic future ahead judging by the growing rumors. backwards compatibility seems to be forever assured going forward starting from ps4. I kind of predicted this once it turned out Sony were changing to x86 architecture for this generation. No more exotic hardware that takes a decade to master, possibility to facilitate hardware upgrades without the gargantuan R&D costs of the past and a faster porting to/from PC.
Especially since the upgrade seems to be of about 2.5x in terms of performance per watt it seems significant enough for me to go for it. Still holding hope on a better CPU, i'd pay the extra 100 for them to ditch Jaguar.
