The only part of the opcom scenario that bothers me is the “send it back to it’s manufacturer” — the whole thing will just become a glorified Ipod that way…..no way.

Couple that technology with some form of nanoassembler, and the entire current civilization is obsolete in a week:
I mean, come on — you feed the thing sand/dirt, and it reconfigures it into a pair of blue jeans that are assembled at the ATOMIC LEVEL?

We need holographic storage.
Canadian ISP’s won’t innovate.
But there is Canada Post.

Five years ago, I was discussing those rental storage places, because were using one to hold our stuff during a move.

I remarked that the future, people would be paying for digital storage, and that future houses would come equipped with digital storage built in. That it would be part of the selling point.

I may not be “on the mark” with my comments, but sorta ballpark I figure.

I want one of these storage devices badly. I packrat binary data.

We won’t need holographic storage.
Canadian ISP’s don’t allow innovation.
