Perhaps something in line/similar with Nitendos new 3D handheld tech, where no glasses are needed for the 3D effect. Though this still needs development.
Besides I just think things are going to get a lot more inter-grated in daily life.

If 3D without glasses are here or not, the real breakthrough for me, is when ordinary people can buy and own it. Then the new tech revolution/evolution is here.

Star Trek like holo-facilites, the guy who invents this will make a billion dollars a day just from the porn industry (I'm thinking about the 'hard' hologram version not the 'soft' one ).

thats the holy grail of 3D. Just saw this on TV. A hologram(s) with no screen or anything...maybe a small, think pad or padding for a room ya know but thats it.
Its already in development
I want those brainwave-input controllers finally working well. Combine that with high resultion glasses with a built in headset, and all that connected to a ultra high performance smartphone and I would just roll around the couch all day... Better yet, implant tiny screen things into my eyes so that I can have augemented reality all day-every day.
But even then I don't think that will substantially alter our everyday life, like radio, tv and internet did. 3D also won't do that much to change all that.

And the guy would also make trillions from creating the transporter and replicator technologies because that's what the holodecks use.
*insert the nerd trollface that I cba to look for right now*
well, way before the brain plugs, cloud computing allowed by superfast internet will come
don't bother buying hard drives anymore, get a SSD for the OS and that's all you need
although, i wouldn't mind being able to download a celebrity for my robot like in futurama, that or hookerbots

I also say some kind of holographic display. The devices will become really small, because most stuff will work in the cloud, and with holographic displays the device itself could be smaller than the screen area.
The next step after that would be projection directly into the iris, so that you don't need any displays at all any more.

That has been around for quite some time now. I have to Google it but MIT created a retinal beamer perhaps 10 years ago.

Not having anything to hide doesn't mean my live should be an open book to others.
Eh then again I don't want them to look into my porn browsing behaviour.

Yeah so more like in The 6th Day then? That holographic lapdance wasn't half-bad, I admit.

Mhm, tho I think what Huxley feared is starting to look more likely than what Orwell had in mind.
What Orwell feared were those who would ban books. What Huxley feared was that there would be no reason to ban a book, for there would be no one who wanted to read one. Orwell feared those who would deprive us information. Huxley feared those who would give us so much that we would be reduced to passivity and egoism. Orwell feared that the truth would be concealed from us. Huxley feared the truth would be drowned in a sea of irrelevance. Orwell feared we would become a captive culture. Huxley feared we would become a trivial culture, preoccupied with some equivalent of the feelies, the orgy porgy, and the centrifugal bumblepuppy.
@inz: I think reality is more a combination of Huxley and Orwell, made a post in this section about that some time ago. We citizens are getting indoctrinated/brainwashed by mass media and in the meanwhile governments can trace everything you do.
Call me paranoid but my new mobile phone has a GPS-receiver. How can I know that it isn't possible to activate that function remotely and trace my whereabouts?

Yup, tho with an emphasis on Huxley's dystopia. The vast majority of the populace just don't give a toss about anything as long as their personal lives aren't affected.

we're fighting it. unlike people in other countries who get ass raped by their governments and take it all with a smile. WHAT WHAT! I hope we win. Or march is really going to suck.
