Question Next years competition?

Dean Kamen was spotted in the Real Seafood Company, a restaurant in Ann Arbor, MI last week. Reportedly he was with executives from multiple large engineering firms. (the source could not identify the individual executives but did notice busness cards from Segway LLC, MSX international, Ford Motor Company, and others.) The source overheard a conversation on the topic of technology and philanthropy in the 21 century. After the meal Kamen and another unidentified person sat down at the bar ordered sodas (apperntly he was driving?) and started discussing FIRST and the 2003 competition. Details at this point became sketchy however, our source was able to ascertain the following:

The playing field will be two levels.
The robots will start on the bottom.
The balls will be on the top level.

Kamen also sketched a plan for the field on a cocktail napkin. The napkin is not available at this time however the attached .gif file is a approximation of what was sketched.
