I'm sitting here in Starbucks and well... the guy next to me who just sat down has a very fancy laptop. It actually wants him to press his finger tip onto a sensor pad to unlock the computer! Wow... It is running Windows, I can at least see that much. The screen is also rotatable and flips around so that when it is closed he can use the computer as a tablet. Right now, he is sitting there, using a stylus to write notes into some program, actual handwriting notes.
Hmmm... I think that I'm pretty computer savvy with my little laptop, but I get a sense that there are a lot of things out there that we regular people don't see! Mind you, I'm a bit slow in the area of cell phones and smart phones. I still have just a regular cell phone, while pretty much everybody else seems to have an iPhone or a Blackberry or something similar.
I guess the truth is, whatever we can imagine, well, it might already exist. If it doesn't already exist... it's probably not too far away! Imagine 20 years ago (1991) and how the internet was just getting going and computers were so pathetic. My first computer had a 650 KB RAM and a 40 MB harddrive! Amazing... Nowadays, most smartphones have way more memory than that... With all this technology, it's definitely keep up... or get left behind!
