    My question is what will be the next really big technological invention?
Great question, I wish I knew the answer. I can tell you that it's not this My guess is that it will be something so intuitive that it will use voice only commands for the most part. Instead of typing this, I'd be speaking it.

One of the things that baffles me about modern technology is that it still (often) requires cables and even plugs for electricity. When we can get to a point where you don't have to plug something in, at all... it will be a much more attractive world.

When my grandkids are someday alive and old enough, my hope is that they live in a much less cluttered world. No electrical wires/towers littering the landscape.

What do you think? What's the next big thing?
