A short list of the things I keep hearing about and want the most:
- An electric car. Even better would be a plug-in hybrid that can go around 60 miles on pure electric before needing to start the Internal combustion. That would mean I could go to work and back on electric-only, yet I could still be able to go on longer trips if needed. If I can’t have that, I’ll take a small electric car to get me to work and back and keep my current car for those longer trips. Photovoltaics on the roof would be great too – even if it couldn’t fully charge my car while I’m at work, it would still reduce the amount of juice needed when I plug it in.
- A new smart phone. I haven’t decided which one in particular, but I’d take a 32 GB iPhone, a phone running Windows Mobile 6.5 (like the HTC Touch Diamond2 or Touch Pro2) or one of the new Android phones like the Magic. I need it now, not in Q2!
- A flying car. I’ve been promised one of these in movies since the 80s. Where’s my flying car?
