This week on eWeek.com they have a Tech Outlook 2004

Outlook on Mobile Computing -- personally I think that's going to be big.

2004 for Linux: grows up (or blows up)

What else, I think Mobile, Wireless & Linux will come out winners, and not only for 2004 but over next several years. Mobile, since you get enough speed that you do not need a desktop, plus more cool gadgets are becoming more powerfull, like PDAs and cell-phones; Wireless, because the technology is just cool; and Linux, because it's free and getting more reliable and user friendly. Also, everything -- all of the gadgets -- will get smaller and be wireless: that will make them better!
