Hmmm, it is the 16th year... Sweet 16 and Donuts << thats just seems to go together somehow... lol

No matter what i think we can pretty much safely say that the camera is going to be involved in some way, most likely for autonomous.

Tetras in 2005 (shaped like a triangle), Balls in 2006 (similar to a circle), I guess a square shape in 2007. I mean look at there logo....

As far as the electronics go i predict some change, not sure exactly what, maybe the camera or the OI and RC... I think its safe to say the breaker panel, Victors, and Spikes will stay the same. Changing something with the Radio Modems might be a thought. (Programming wirelessly would be nice)
