Technologies to look out for in 2008

Here are a bunch of exciting technologies to look out for this year:

1) Wireless USB: Tired of carrying all those wires with your USB devices. Well... there is hope of getting rid of them. Wireless USB is capable of high speed data transfer (much faster than Bluetooth). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wireless_USB

2) Solid State Drive (SSD): These are the next generation of Disk Drives. They should be hugely successful with mobile devices (like laptops n phones) coz they are mechanically very reliable. They have the ability to endure extreme shock, high altitude, vibration and temperatures. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solid_state_disk.

3) Organic Light-Emitting Diode (OLED): Much more efficient than the traditional LED and plasma due to their low power consumption and ability to provide more color depth without any backlight. Extremely thin TVs with amazing colors will be possible with this technology. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Organic_light-emitting_diode.

4) Near Field Communication (NFC): This is a short range, high-frequency wireless communication technology aimed primarily at usage in the mobiles. This makes things like Mobile ticketing and payment possible. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Near_Field_Communication.
