A technology not without its problems, but with definite potential as well. And it would be, if nothing else, a cool throwaway mention in a nearish-future story.

I’ve just been reading Cory Doctorow’s collection Overclocked, and part of what he does that makes his stories so full-on (and distracts you from the unlikeliness) is that he tosses in throwaway references to other cool technologies that some people would wrap a whole story around, just as incidental background.
