It seems that Carmack is advocating the technical capabilities of this device based on the low-level APIs common to consoles in general.


Low level APIs will allow the Sony NGP to perform about a generation beyond smart phones with comparable specs.

I recall that there were quite a few technical hurdles to overcome with virtual-texturing in Rage for the iPhone, and even more on Android, based on the available APIs and lack of policy/documentation for extreme cases.
