Is it breakable?

But seriously, is that some kind of joke? Wow.

It's the future. The technology already exists to make that stuff reality, but it's not mainstream, not production ready, and certainly not affordable, yet. I remember a few years back when scientists invented the first completely transparent computer chip (my idea was contact lenses with a TV screen inside them, rofl).

I'm not against new technology and everything, but this stuff is really scary. I'm looking at our society right now and I see how Facebook, Twitter, smart phones, etc. are all affecting our way of life, and I'm just uneasy about all of it. I just can't see it ending well. 50 years from now the stuff in this video will be mainstream, and I really hope I'm not alive when it is. :(

Oh it wont be 50 years before this is mainstream... 50 years ago they landed on the moon with slide rules. All this stuff is already present in iPhones.. click, zoom, move, load. I bet there's a few house w/ that technology that have been around for a few years now. Maybe not ALL that.. but the fridge and bathroom mirror wouldn't be hard to do at all, just need to be rich out of ur mind. I can't see the bus stop tho. just because I doubt society will ever be rid of vandalism and graffiti enough to invest that kind of money into public spaces. lol
