[ODE] Future of physics processors and IM API

[Erin Catto]

I've seen no evidence that Ageia's card is anything more than a daughter
board with an off-the-shelf CPU and some local RAM. I don't think this is
nearly as interesting as multi-core CPUs, such as in the Xbox 360.

The problem with developing an open physics API is that physics algorithms
are not nearly as well published and researched as graphics algorithms. It's
not a solved problem, at least not in the public view. Given the current
situation, I don't think it will happen.
