I was thinking... being able to connect to SecondLife from pretty much anywhere which isnt too locked down is very cool. Quick 22meg download and away one goes.

Compares to:
Shattered Galaxy (185meg download)
Everquest II, WoW (4gig?)

It's really a major plus. Wherever you go, you can always stay connected.

WoW currently is 2gig installer, and 3something gig installed.

And yes the small client is a major plus.

Yes, that is REALLY cool. Can't wait until we have a flash plug in :)
