Gravity is reversed: The player actually starts hovering several feet in the air, tethered only by the HDMI cable and the power cord.

NASA's looking at building a larger version of both technologies in order to launch the next space shuttle in 2010.

No lie.

It would render the video @ 2160p/120 and the audio at 14.2 surround sound
Your TV and needs to have dual hdmi/simultaneous inputs though <-- also known as digital video concurrency (DVC)

DVC is kind of like SLi for PCs.

I want to be able to lend and borrow movies... something like this is a huge positive towards that end.  Hopefully they find a way to do this with low production costs and other publishers follow the trend.
