The Next New Thing

Allow me to introduce the notion of 

 .....MORPHING.....

(the next stage of convergence)

So this is how it will play out:

You have one gadget.

• First "disguise" -- ALARM CLOCK.  Set up the night before to fulfill the purpose of waking you up.  Upon success, you turn it off and morph it into your cell phone.
• Second disguise -- CELL PHONE.  Check messages.
• Third disguise -- WRIST WATCH.  Snap it on, go to work.
• Fourth disguise -- LAPTOP.  Put the gadget on your desk, push a button and watch it morph into your personal PC.
• Fifth disguise -- iPOD.  Hit the gym without having to store all your valuables in a public locker.
• Sixth disguise -- CAMERA.  Take a picture of a restaurant on your way home and wirelessly send it to someone as a dinner suggestion.

This morphing gadget will allow for consumers to have ONE "tool" to perform almost everything.  All that will be left are credit cards and keys!  But who knows, perhaps we can combine those into the morphing gadget as well.

The best part is that not only will this be completely wireless, but it will be eco-friendly as well, as it will recharge through solar power.  This will also help with the ease and reliability of using the device, as it will never die on you.  The drawback: Now you'll have to literally turn it off if you need a break from reality...
