The healthcare video is the one that seems to get the most attention. (When I first saw it, everyone around me was "ooh"ing and "aah"ing.) I actually found the video to be a pretty banal vision of the future of healthcare. You don't fix healthcare by adding a bunch of touch screens everywhere. What would have impressed me is if any of the following had been featured: - AI decision support helps the doctor correctly diagnose a patient's disease (think 20q.net, but for medicine) - Software that helps nurses in the ER triage patients and queues them to be seen based on a mathematical model to minimize costs and morbidity - Enterprise resource management that ensures all resources are delivered around the hospital like clockwork - Telepresence software that lets a surgeon in China watch and maybe even guide the surgery - An app that gives patients specific recommendations based on their genotype and lets them communicate with others who have similar genes (see http://www.patientslikeme.com/ http://www.patientslikeme.com/) These things would not have made great eye candy, but they are far more important to the future of healthcare.
