I heard about a dozen of these Super CE machine posts.  My question is what
about OTHER characters.  Everyone mentions Ryu/Ken/Blanka/Guile.  What
about the other 8?  Can Zangief do a SPD in mid-air?  A spinning bird
kick would be lethal as hell in the air if you're jumping?  How about a
yoga flame in mid air as Dhalsim is falling?  A torpedo in mid-air would
be just about the cheesiest move imaginable.  A Honda wouldn't stand a
chance.  

Next question regarding aerial moves.  How in the hell could you be able
to ball in mid-air!!??!!??  It's been stated that it is MUCH faster
which means LESS time to charge up, and you can do this in mid-air!!??
Can he electricute in mid-air?  If so, how cheesy.  Honda's hands (if it
could be done in the air) would be the ultimate killer move (if not
blocked).  Can someone near one of these machines please post more
information?
