I'd love to think that we'll see a massive change in the way communications infrastructure works with a move towards massively distributed P2P nets for most things and far, far more two-way media as the barriers for publishing drop further and further.

I'd also really, really like to see a fucking mesh standard get off the ground. I want every device I carry to talk to each other and provide services to each other. My phone should be able to tell my ipod to route the call into my earphones, my ipod should be able to buy songs over the net connection on my phone, my pda should be able to get my email of it (at least that bit exists) and my PDA and phone should be able to use my Ipod for storage. All in 1 stuff always without fail bites ass because it makes comprimises on everything.

Oh an I predict we'll be able to get in-glasses HUDs, we've already got them, it's just a matter of input, size and power now. Size wise it's only the controller unit that's a problem.
