Future holographic monitors / displays - no screens, no glass panels...
I'd be interested in what you'all think?

I wonder if this new display uses a projection bulb or not, if so how many hours it lasts and how much it costs?

Holographic video. That's what I'm holding out for. Why wait for Blu-Ray? OK 10 years is a long time so maybe I'll have to cave in and get a Blu-Ray this year but how cool would holographic video be? Beam me up Scotty!

I am holding out for the Star Trek Next Generation Holodeck.

The 'pen' computer, exists now and it probably won't be too far off before we see more stuff like this. Exciting time to be living, huh?

10, 15, maybe 20 years away...

Craig,

Some people think holographic technology is at least 10 years away but who really knows for sure really:

SugarMedia, the pen computer looks too cool...

Joe, I wouldn't mind going on a Star Trek - Holodeck though...
