Top 5 2008 Tech Predictions
We just posted my top 5 tech predictions for 2008 on CNET TV.
WAIT!
Watch it first.
OK. NOW you can tell me why I'm going to be so totally wrong. In fact,I encourage you to post your predictions in the comments here,and we'll circle back in a year and see who's right.
Would you like a wrap-up of the week's hottest CNET TV videos delivered directly to your in-box? Then sign up for the weekly CNET TV newsletter, delivered every Friday.
Secondly, a station will broadcast on air and online at the same time? Really? Are we talking big networks (like CBS, NBC) or like the Golf Channel? I don't see the big boys taking up this one anytime soon. But if Tom says it will happen, then it must have at least a slight chance, right?
Also i think that they will come out with a mac nano
just like with the DS they'll use the huge profits to make a revamped Wii
DVD playback definately, maybe a harddrive, and maybe even some better hardware to do HD rendering
2. Apple iPhone sees major defects, leading to a new version of the iPhone.
3. Microsoft Zune overtakes iPod in sales, if only for a short time (around 1 month or so).
4. IPTV sees a big surge in popularity and gains a significant support base from several networks to broadcast popular tv shows and sports games, without charging a service fee.
5. Windows Vista gets Service Pack 1 delivered, providing a massive overhaul in compatibility, performance, and stability making it the #1 OS to own.
