From the comments under the Vodafone post, comes this interesting tidbit: Shin'ichi Konomi points out a presentation by NTT DoCoMo called Vision 2010. You can access it by going to the NTT DoCoMo home page at: www.nttdocomo.com, and clicking on the link to "Vision 2010."

It's a video presentation of a near future world (in the year 2010, only six years away). In it, mobile devices and RFID help us not only transact business better, but also improve the quality of life and connect with family and friends. This one uses either Real Player or Windows Media.
