    So what does the future hold...I'll go first
    Medi-kit
    Basic emergency medical procedures can be preformed by anyone using this kit, holographic display glasses, with basic meds and tools etc, just like the emergency defibrillators Ring 999, they will give you a code to open the kit, or can be bought privately too.
    It will be something like google glasses, put them on and you will see a superimposed holographic image onto the patient with instructions through a ear piece which will talk you through the procedure.

    Well crackpot or not?

    Zero calorie treat food.


    It will however cause heart attacks. Slight side effect, but at least you won't get fat.

    You'd have just eliminated the major physical side effect of Irelands greatest social lubricant.

    This would be greater than a cure for cancer and aids combined

    Broadband. That's actually available. Ok, that's probably a bit far-fetched, but I live to dream.

    A mood changer, some kinda device that you hit a button and changes your brainwaves or whatever (I let some one else figure that out) to happy

    Au contraire Rodders, t'would be the ruination of the nation. I read it in an Asterix The Gaul book that a potion that cured hangovers led to the downfall of the Roman Empire because everybody was drunk all the time.

    Teleportation.

    Imagine never again having to rely on public transport, no more dependency on fossil and biofuels, no stress filled traffic jams, imagine you could go to the bar, set your teleportation device to zap you back home to your bed at closing time. It'd do away with the need for e-mail and social networking when you could deliver the message in person!

    And before some smartarse pips up that it'd be popular for burglars, I imagine in implementing the technology that they'd have built in security that you couldn't just beam into your neighbours house, borrow a cup of sugar, and beam out again... :D
