Beyond the communicator
- just the top half of this unit, but with all the functions on one side
- Next: touch sensitive screen or other finger/stylus input.
- Since as an internet WWW appliance you don't really need to type much - mostly just point and click.
- phone: you rarely need to dial - since most of the people you call are already in your on-line directory and most new numbers you get will be in a message (which can be placed into your on-line directory of phone numbers).
- Add a scanner: scan ads, phonebooks, business cards, etc. and enter the phone number this way.
- CCD camera: recognized you and configured itself based on the environment you were in (i.e., recognizes your office, the car, home office, ...).
