Text based services are going to be big for a while; small screens and keyboards and being on the go with wonky access and low bandwidth will mean that it's worthwhile to get a text version of what you're after.
Wireless bridges and bulletin board access points might be selling better (a bulletin board ap is one that has local storage and no backhaul bandwidth, it's sort of like a wiki restricted to a particular physical location).
Laptop Decor will become ever more important.
Most schools will require laptops, or just provide them.
Coworking Coffee Houses will become a distinct and recognizable place.
Legal documents on the web will be more common as the expectation will become that everyone has access.
Homeless people will hack for food. (hack in both senses of the word)
Festival registrations, solar power packs, campfire computing; Burning Man tech will go mainstream.
Field programmable gear will go big, your car, your house, your dogs collar will all expect to be told what to do over a usb port.
