I'm sure microsoft will sponsor it, and they'll make the windows shutdown noise.

and of course they'll insist that they conform to the handheld standard...

Hmm..."beams of UV radiation".... No thanks. I don't want the Blue Screen of Death to become that close to reality. :eek:

If they can transmit electrical current through air, that means electric cars wouldn't need charging stations anymore. This cord that is wrapped around my ankle would not have to exist. Wow, think of all the possibilites...

Think about it, PDAs and Palm Pilots are just replicas of tricorders . . . They are already hooking them up with barcode readers, temperature gauges, and much more. What will they think of next?!?

ever since they invented the real "hpyo-spray" and discovered anti-matter, i've hade a strong belief that everything that they invented for the star-treck series would actually become a real thing.

i think the guys that designed all the startreck stuff went to such detail and resarch that they only used things that might actually exist one day...


now, where did my romulan mistreess go?...

hmmm, when are they goin to start making those microwave replica thingys...i want one of those. i can order what ever i want, whenever i want...

tall mocha frappuccino please...ham and cheese omelette...that'd be nice. plus, because what ever it uses to make the food doesn't cause any bi-products there'd be no need for toilets.

i remember in reading rainbow...when gordi gave a tour of the ****, it only had one toilet. for a ship that had like 1500 people, that's a long @ss line. therefore it stands to believe that there are no human bi-products. i'd suspect that the toilet was only installed so that people who were piss drunk could pray to the porcelin god...oh wait, in the future, the alcoholic beverages, were non-alcoholic...boohoo

Cheer up, that's just the stuff served on board ship. Real drinks can be smuggled on board (Romulan Ale and Scottie's stash of, what else, scotch).
