Another awesome experience at the Wii Exhibition Booth is to be able to control an Orchestra with the amazing Wii controller. Watch some people and myself directing the Orchestra in crazy ways.

One of the most fun experiences of the Wii controller is playing Tennis. I still have to figure out though what the controller exactly can do in this game. Since the players move automatically, I guess it’s more about the timing of the shot than about the angle and the speed that the ball is hit.

The first game that I get to play is Super Mario Galaxy. It is possibly the best Super Mario game ever. It feels cool as Mario Sunshine in the Bonus platform stages.

I sneaked in to the pre-E3 Nintendo party by the Kodak Theatre Tuesday night. It was a party with nice food, lots of nice Japanese game developpers and the Black Eyed Peas.

A Panasonic representative is showing me their latest DVC Pro HD camera that shoots 1920×1080i and 720p50 in 100mbit/s. The World Cup will be filmed with these cameras and broadcasted in 720p on some HD channels. Then he also shows me the next generation consumer HD camera from Panasonic with SD card memory and the new Panasonic 7,4 megapixel XLR camera.

Peer-to-peer technology for voice over IP, you would need new hardware, but this system, if it works and is reliable and supported by governments and companies, it could replace the centralized voice-over-IP systems as SIP and Asterix and all that. This technology could be competing with Cisco, Avaya and all these established networking companies.

Showing cool RFID technologies, like you would have chips in all the products in your fridge, and it would automatically generate a shopping list for you with missing product, then when you identify yourself at the supermarket with a special shopping cart, it tells you where to go in the store to pick up the product, and as soon as you throw a product in the shopping cart it adds it to your screen, and to checkout you could just walk out of the store and pay with your account automatically.

Siemens are demonstrating some awesome peer-to-peer technology with huge potential if it is effective and works. It’s a peer-to-peer set-top-box where you connect your SIP phone, TV, harddrives and other devices and they all go on the Siemens peer-to-peer network. They say to have very effective p2p video streaming, instant messaging and other things. This is possibly how the next generation internet is going to be.
