elevators to space... every book ever, sent across the globe, in seconds...
the elevator thing might seem a bit far fetched but the data thing does not. resolutions/bitrates/everything will continue upwards (forever). why shouldn't you be able to print a 4x5 foot poster of a pic from your digicam? why should you have a video with less resolution than the screen you are watching it on? why shouldn't your home theatre have 14 speakers?
i will tell you 6 megapixel dslr's cost 8 grand in 2001. now 10 megapixel dslr's are under a thousand. the current going price for 22 megapixels is 7 grand. will it take 6 years for that price to be less than a thousand? i doubt it.
