More tools, yes, but just upgraded versions of tools that are already out there. We already have virtual tabletops, and they will get better. DDI will get more breadth and will be easier to use, probably including more adventue and encounter tools. But there will still be books out there, though probably fewer than today. There are a lot of proponents of digital books, etc, but the technology is just not there yet, and if the infighting between different companies is any guide, it will not be solved anytime soon. And once the tech is in place, then it is the problem of getting people to accept it. Another hurdle. Finally, how much money is there in gaming? Enough for a technological revolution all its own? No. Definitely not. We will catch the fringes of tech developed for other purpoes and will have to adapt it to our purposes, like we are doing now.</blockquote>
