[ut3] NVidia buying AGEIA

[Eric Jackman]

I wasn't suggesting that they are going to drop the existing projects 
that AGEIA has in the pipeline at the moment.  I was just pointing out 
that you shouldn't expect or even hope for new super amazing innovative 
crossover products from NVIDIAGEIA by Christmas.   Expect maybe the next 
iteration of the Physyx card the GeForce9 series.  and in a few years we 
will see pforce mobos with built in PPU for christmas 2010.
