There was even a whole pop-sci book -- Hubbard's "The World According to Wavelets" (1996) that was a bit like Mandelbrot's "The Fractal Geometry of Nature" in that it predicted an amazing future for the technique and claimed that science would be revolutionized by it. But it is nice to see that wavelets, like fractals, do have their uses even if the revolution never came.
