in the not too distant future someone is finally going to do the obvious and create a pokerstove-like program that evaluates preflop ranges with different community cards. you'd plug in a preflop range, select community cards, and see a breakdown of each different hand type given the board. once something like that shows up i think the games may start changing a lot again.

i wonder if you could expand on this - right now, to me, it seems a little too complicated to adequately inform anyone. do you mean to say that within a given range (say, x% of hands being raised on the button), it would evaluate your hand against that x% range? i'm still not sure this information could be used optimally - nor that it's particularly better than what's being done now.
To me it sounds like you would say below or above a certain opponent's range holding a given hand, you should raise, call, or fold - but you should be doing the former two less than 100% of the time anyway in a given situation, thereby increasing your possible range (and making your opponent therefore play worse).
