I feel that we will be sitting here in 50 years time in our wheelchairs.
being fed by a tube with a intravenous drip hanging next to us.
...........This may sound grim but or on our deathbeds typing away!
......God I can only imagine the mobile technology by then.

i think when most of us look bad at the really old phones and then look at our Pxx or K700 phones, we'll say, wow those were the days

We'll be looking at them in museums whilst listening to kids saying 'wow, did people REALLY have to carry those bits of plastic around with them to make phone calls - didn't they have their phones implanted into them like us, mum?'
Sounds outlandish? If you look at how far technology has evolved - especially computers and communications tech has evolved over the last 50 years, the next 50 I suspect will be just as mind-blowing!

@
axxxr: About "Growing old on esato?": Well, why not? There are worse things to see forward to than that, that's for sure.
50 years from now? 50 years of (even) fast(er) technological development?
Personally I don't think that anyone can imagine the mobile (phone) technology that will be present at that time, not even in the wildest of fantasies.
@
bobafett: But at least there will be one very big difference between the /// phones and the pre-historical dinosaurs, except for the enormous difference in age: The /// phones will still be alive and kicking
