1) A maid is not rosy the robot.. I have a maid, she comes every other week. It's not feasible to have her do things like the laundry at any affordable frequency. 2) I've got the license, I still don't see a street-legal flying plane .. preferably one that is 100% auto-pilot that can let me surf the web while I commute .. if I commuted further than a walk to bart. 3) Gastic Bypass surgery == starving yourself and throwing up if you eat more than 3oz of food in a sitting. No thank you. There should be a pill, or a suction hose. This would be a trillion dollar market. 4) I have hopes for augmented reality dating. It would just be awesome to have that much extra knowledge .. Imagine you're about to hit on some beautiful redhead in a "Science, it works bitches" shirt when you do a facial recognition and find out through OKCupid that she's a strong christian and a member of the jonesboro baptist church, whereas you're looking for a kinky atheist .. Crisis avoided! 5) I spoke with the TV-B-Gone guys about this a while back. They gave it some thought and found that the car-stereo options were just too varied to be feasible .. I guess every souped up car stereo with remotes uses a different tech, often proprietary. Still, it would be nice.. I'd also accept a directional EMP gun. 6) oooh! 7) Definitely neat .. That being said, as a pedestrian, I don't trust my local consumers to drive a car, maybe a computer could do a better job. 8) That's kind of neat.. I have a rather specific application for video chat. My daughter lives in Seattle, and we use Google Video to chat right now .. It's pretty sub-par. 900 miles as the bird flies should be enough for us to have at least 1024x768 chat with minimal latency .. This is actually a startup I'm thinking about pursuing, but one specifically towards making it so divorced dads can chat with their toddlers without their toddlers having the ability to accidentally close the window .. But I digress.
