90% Networked Sony Devices. Good news for ubicomp researchers? As long as there is an api!

Sony Goal: 90% of ALL Our Products Networked By 2010
An article at Gizmodo suggested that sony are planning to make 90% of their devices networked by 2010, which is pretty interesting, as it means Ubicomp researchers can munge all these things together to make cool new systems! That is, if the devices can be programmed and tinkered with.
However this will hopefully mean the more consumer devices will become 'connected' and therefore accessible by pervasive systems at least in some minor way. One issue I see though is that of privacy, if all of these devices are connected, we have to make sure that the data they are transmitting is non-private or reliably encrypted, and of course network attack proof!

Lets hope IPv6 is well in place by then otherwise we're going to have even more problems with the IPv4 address space. Either that or we're going to keep getting bigger and bigger walled gardens using private IP addresses and NAT.

Typing can sometimes be quicker though :D
Though admittedly more and more of them are appearing in my autocomplete for the text field these days/

I wonder what'll happen when the Daily Mail / Radio 2 get a hold of this information. We'll probably have another day of news consisting of "WE ARE RUNNING OUT OF INTERNETS"
IPv6 really can't come fast enough, but I always wonder what'll happen to all the legacy devices..
