Many of us have been predicting that the laptop will become the desktop over time and that people will no longer use two machines. There is no doubt that the little pocket computers led by Palm and Visor, followed by CE machines, will make a monster market. They will be for sure, someday. This trend has been slowly evolving over the years but has yet to have huge societal impact. Someday it will, and the repercussions from real estate prices to unionization issues will emerge and change everything.
Timing is important here.
This trend has been creeping up slowly, and few have noticed how much has been changed by it. We think cell phones are already a huge trend.

Post your predictions please.
