I think most uses of high-speed chips for the general consumer will involve media uses. Already I can stream Hi-Def on-demand over my cable service, although I get the impression the company is stretching its tech to the limit.

This involves both processing speed, and bandwidth. The latter will hit its stride when optical fiber becomes more available.

I would not be investing any money right now in Blockbuster.
