1) The resurrection 'chamber'. I was expecting to see banks and banks of bio pods (ala The Matrix) but *one* bathtub? Do they *only* come back to life one at a time? Yes I realize that they were on Caprica and it was probably a portable unit or something set up quickly and it wasn't exactly like the Cylon homeworld and/or the ship that we saw. Also why have the folks stand around when they're being reborn? Do they *know* beforehand who will be reborn and where? Inquiring minds want to know!

What did we hear...there are 9 humanoid models? Well, perhaps they have one for each model and machine-like efficency is what makes them look alike.

Why do they stand around? My guess would be to help the next whoever get acclamated. It looked like a lot of things still need to be processed after being 'reborn'.

As for how they know, the memories that get transferred have to be processed somehow. Death can be a very sudden thing and a big burst of data (needed to transmit very quickly) would need to be reduced into manageable chunks for the new cylon body. Anyways, there must be some kind of computer system they can monitor.
"Oh, looks like the Six on the Pegasus just bought it. We've got about 30 minutes before the new body wakes up."
