And what currency will we be using to buy the Yaroze 2 when it arrives? Seriously, the PS2 is /conservatively/ at least a year away from market (most probably six months or a year more) - development kits AFAIK (and I'm fairly certain about this) have not been issued to major developers. Any Net Yaroze 2 would be at least another 2 years on top of that, I would guess. Yes, I /do/ hope that there will be a follow up scheme. But I'm not going to set my dreamy little mind away on some flight of fancy like that until things look a little firmer - mainly because I wouldn't have much left to concentrate on what I've got at the moment. I think you're best off addressing this question to some suited gentleman in Japan, upon whose whim this ultimately depends... James.
