Is it ever good for a startup to anticipate the future, or should they try to surf the wave?

  Of the successful startups I can think of off the top of my head, few - if any - were first to market. Especially with new technologies being riskier and more expensive, it seems the wisest thing for a cash-strapped startup is to stick with whats popular. Though avoiding risk is probably not a common trait among tech entrepreneurs.

    I guess if I want to be cutting edge I have to either be academia or military, huh?
