I have been privileged enough to actually see the "whole" new core and like has been mentioned in this topic line: it is like nothing else and hard to describe.
While the name of the ball was not divulged to me, the name of the "core technology" was, but I was asked not to mention it. So I won't.
I looked up the definition of the name and realized why they chose it. While I can't give out the name, I will give out the definition (a little hype never hurt anyone).
So here it is, straight from: WordNet ® 2.0, © 2003 Princeton University
1)any creative group active in the innovation and application of new concepts and techniques in a given field (especially in the arts)
2)the position of greatest advancement; the leading position in any movement or field
I know this is only a tease and that some people out there hate that. But I just wanted to add a little excitement to this post and not burn my bridges at the same time. Hope this was somewhat helpful.
