From high-tech market research firm In-Stat/MDR, expects the Xbox successor to arrive in late 2005:
The first next-generation console should hit the market in the fourth quarter of 2005 with the introduction of Microsoft's Xbox 2.
In-Stat/MDR also informs about Sony's plans and how Nintendo fits in the middle:
Sony, however, is not likely to give Microsoft too much lead time before launching its PS3 console, which should occur by mid-2006. Nintendo will try to launch its next-generation GameCube 2 console either before, or simultaneously with Sony, which Nintendo considers to be its primary competition.
