I usually lurk, but after reading the 6th monk = divine/psi controller I dropped my head into the keyboard and posted

Thank you!!! It just seemed way obvious to me if they were including the ki power source.

I fully suspect the PHBII will include the psionic power source because the Eberron campaign setting will be coming out and psionics plays a significant role in that world. Also, the one class likely to be included in the ECS is the Artificer. I totally see this class as a leader/controller. They can buff up their party members with their infusions to armour/weapons and then they could infuse a variety of implements to mimic the powers of wizards/warlocks/clerics.

I really like the idea of the Telpath (psionic leader) and Kineticist(psionic controller). While the Lurk appears to me to be a better striker, there's something a little more iconic to the soulknife being the psionic striker instead. I'm a little worried about the pyschic warrior being another swordmage. Maybe they'll make the Soulknife a psionic defender instead and keep the lurk as a striker.

I'm really curious as to what they plan to do with the elemental power source. Since I have no clue what former 3E classes mesh with this power source. I've seen the shugenja/wujen but they were just clerics/wizards with a slightly different spell selection and flavour.
