A quick overview of some of the good stuff from eCoupled.
Want to know what's in your cupboard? What you need to buy more of? Want to cook in the package? Check out eCoupled's new technology, soon to be available. Can you imagine if our libraries were set up this way. The books would know if they were off the shelf, or out of order!
You can cook anywhere you install one of the small contact points. Charge and run devices wirelessly.
Charge your electric car wirelessly. If all parking lots had these (not sure about the snow in Maine though), we could be charging as we grocery shop, go to the dentist, etc.

Tablets and Pads
I'd love to see us use some tablets or pads at school.
The Eee Pad MeMO by Asus is a tablet and a phone combined that will be coming out this summer. The device comes with a Bluetooth headset with mic for receiving calls. It has a 7 inch touch screen and two cameras. One camera is on the front (1.2 megapixel) for making video calls and one on the back (5 megapixel) with an LED flash. It also has a stylus for taking notes and drawing in the included apps, Media Note and Painter.
The Motorola Xoom Tablet is another good tablet soon to be released...maybe in April. It is larger with a 10.1 in. screen. It has 32 GB of internal memory and a great battery that will last for up to 10 hours. Again, it has a 5 megapixel camera on the back and a 2 megapixel camera on the front for video calls. When it is released it will be 3G with Verizon, but soon to handle 4G networks.
And then there's the Toshiba:

Floor to Ceiling Display
Made of thousands of color changing lights, you get a display that shows video, but you can look through, too.
