When I was a kid, I was fascinated with the buck rogers & star trek stuff, and out comes the remote video camera, cell phone, digital music, and WIFI among many things. The ray gun may not be far behind. Back to the future show us a glimpse of a flying car. Maybe the idea of a flying car is ready to go beyond concept and design and have looked at the Neiman Marcus offering with some seriousness. It might spark some kids brain to see this 'new toy' as reality and build one for us soon. So many things happened in our lifetime (within 50 years) that things we see as impossible are really just difficult and waiting to be resolved. Advances in intelligent computer programs like the one used in the volkswagen car that won the recent robot car competition might be the answer. The materials and parts and power may already be available, only the piloting and control is lacking. In the near future, the GPS and a controlled airway grid in air space maybe coming. I wish I am still around to witness the real one so I can buy one from a Sear's catalog (or whatever) instead of a Neiman Marcus. I want it cheaper and affordable.
Following the commercial success (and technical disappointment) of the original Wildfire -- which featured a miserly 528MHz CPU and QVGA display -- HTC has returned with the Wildfire S.
