News: PlanetSide Universe visits SOE Next Week!

1. Although the answer is already known ( I think) I like to hear it again: VOIP. Automatic for squads without any hoops to jump through with adding people to friends lists, etc? I just like to hear that as often as possible since it's one of the major ways they crush BF3.
2. Resources. In Higby's words, I would interpret them as meaning that all vehicles cost resources, but some people think basic unspec'ed vehicles(ie, basic tanks, basic Reavers, etc) are free and only the specializations cost resources. Which one is correct? Can we actually deny the enemy vehicles by denying them resources, or only spec'ed vehicles? Using tanks as a specific example, are tanks free or if you don't have the resources will you be unable to pull one?
3. Are resources serverwide for an empire, or continent specific? Example: If your empire gets booted all the way back to your foothold on continent X, and therefore, you have no resource producing land on Continent X, can you use Continent Y and Z resources on X?

And, I know this is perhaps a very early question but:
4. Are megacontinents being considered either later in the 5 year plan or for Planetside 3? By this I mean...if our current continents are 8km X 8...a mega continent would be something like 30 X 30. I ask this because of World War 2 Online, mostly, and also because I assume that many MMOFPS, should they start appearing because of PS2's success, would not use the island-continent approach unless forced to by tech.
