In his text - which was written especially due to the CeBIT 2004 - Bill Gates writes among others:

* TVs, DVD-players and other equipment will look the same in future but will be more intelligent and will have access to the Internet

* till 2010 there will be 2 billion computers (mostly in "embedded" form - as part of other devices)

* computers will be smaller and smaller and will be using much less power (what a revolutionary discovery!) and they will react to handwriting and voice

* memory chips that will be able to store terabytes (one terabyte can store 600 hours video recording) of information are coming and will be very tiny

* aritificial intelligence in machines is still far away

* battery-less computers are coming - they will take energy from room temperature or from moves (when carried)

... but he is not mentioning Microsoft powered cell phones (MS Smartphone and Pocket PC phone)... so it is clear again: this man has no vision for cell phone industry. copy and pasted from MsMobiles
