The images caught within the smoke are interesting, hopefully somebody isn't pulling a photoshop prank on us(no offense intended Baby Lee). If it's legit, then the monster has some mindreading capacity, kinda related to The Others who only took the good people, they just know.

Any input on the last line from the computer? "You need to com", before we got cut off. Wasn't sure that last character was an "m" or "n" either. "You need to come get me" perhaps?

When they are ready to "move on", they're taken by the Others.

It explains why everything ties together from each characters past, why the Others immediately take the children, why Locke can now walk etc.

I was somewhat wavering on this theory until last night. Ecko choosing to be a "priest" could ultimately lead to his salvation.

Take it for what it's worth....

2. As I did not post them, and as I did not record the show, I cannot swear to the veracity of each shot.
3. Watching in HD, I certainly did see a number of images running through the smoke as it faced off against Mr. Eko. And I got the distinct sense the smoke was 'auditing' him.

My best guess is that there is some kind of utopian experiement that has either been protected or destroyed by the technology it developed. So far, strong electromagnetic power and nano-tech.
And my speculation is that the nano-tech has gotten out of hand, and it is using the electomagnetic power to assemble avatars it feels are more suitable to the aims of the original project.
