Just a couple of things I am unsure about.
1. Will there be any method of internal saving on the Gamecube, like the N64 had, I know you can on the cart but I fugured will all that memory some could be put aside as a RAM type memory for the games!
2. Will the Gamecube Optical Disc's really be that small?, I can't wait to see that jewel cases. it will still have to be big though cause of the manual!
3. What Non N64 titles / companies will Gamecube have? Some are PS2 exclusives and I kind of missed some of the better PSX titles because of Nintendo's Crap support!

Thank you, Grix! :-)
The Gamecube will have a modem or broadband modemy thingy.
This means you can play games online.

Let's make it simple...
Can the GC go online in *any* form?

Such as what functions make it online compatible. Online gaming, or gaming and browsing?
Functions?
It depends what you mean by "capabilities".

Sorry, what I meant was that I thought GC was a 'pure' games machine, and that it had no 'special features' such as online capability.
Apparently I'm wrong though!

Why bother when they got the SD card? In other words, I doubt it greatly.

Yes. They're small.

Actually, the Cube should have a large variety of 3rd party support this time around, including Sega, Namco, Konami, etc. Likely game candidates for the Cube are Sonic the Hedgehog, Metal Gear Solid, and possibly the sequel to Shenmue and Soul Caliber.
As for the PS2: What exclusives do they have really? So far, I'm only seeing Sony themselves and Square as exclusive at the moment. And how did "Nintendo's Crap support" interfere with the PSX titles???

The second one was more of a comment! And plus I did only say a couple of things...:D
