BuffaloBill Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 What will the next 20 years bring? I think cars that do not require human drivers on highways is going to be a reality. Could result in less road building and less consumption of fuels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fan in San Diego Posted May 5, 2013 Share Posted May 5, 2013 Yeah...I just did that not ten minutes ago. Checking out without removing the items from your cart to be scanned by hand, but scanned wirelessly and paid for wirelessly just by pushing your cart out the door.

Well...I did actually have to scan one bar code to get the process started. So I guess not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Avenger Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 Pretty cool. What's striking is how they didn't see all of these things as features of your portable phone device - they get the whole video phone concept but it is still via a phone booth or corded phone on your desk. So much of it they got right - but they are all things done on your smartphone, and almost evryone has one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
