Remember the Jetsons? Thanks to apple, Google, Microsoft, and mobile handset vendors, their life style might be a few years a way 
Here are the first series of gadgets that are taking us to that direction:
1. Entertainment: Google TV: Starting with the first one Google TV that we covered last month.
Google TV integrates TV and web content to create one, smooth experience. The product is more robust than web TV or Apple TV, and it’s not just a browser or a guide. This device and software will let you search for and navigate both TV and online content. You’ll be able to download and run apps from your TV and control your TV from your Android smartphone.

With all the hypes and buzzes about smartphones , macs, and tablets, it doesn’t look like PCs go anywhere anytime soon. According to market researcher Gartner, Worldwide PC shipments this year are projected to increase 22 percent from a year ago to 376.6 million units, while spending is expected to rise 12 percent to $245.4 billion.
Microsoft says it has sold more than 100 million licenses for Windows 7 since the software came out in October, making it the company’s fastest-selling PC operating system. In contrast, Apple and other makers of tablet devices will ship an estimated 10 million of the devices this year.
Intel Corp. executives assert that the rise of portable computers has reinvigorated PC sales. Instead of one desktop a household, there can now be one portable computer for each person in a home. The chip giant says netbooks — the small, low-priced relative of laptop computers — have sold more quickly in the past two years than the iPhone, iPod or other recently released high-tech products.
Nor do Apple products dominate their markets. The Macintosh accounted for less than 4% of global PC sales in 2009, while its share of smartphone operating system stood at 14.4%, in third place in a market led by Nokia Corp., with 46.9%, Gartner said.

As we are becoming more digital, many of the things we used to be so excited about are fading into history. The top three companies immediately comes to my mind that we should thank for this are Apple, Google, and Facebook. Particularly, Apple CEO, Steve Jobs. His “i” things, iPod, iPhone, iMac, etc. totally affected how we live, do business, acquire information, and connect with others.
They created tools and gadgets that got us so used to do things much easier and faster, touch-screens mobile phone, blazingly fast Internet, and the ability to have the world at our fingertips in seconds. We’re entering 2010 with all kinds of new gadgets, gizmos, and tech tools.
Here are the items most Washingtonians and I think the rest of our nation will stop using in 2010. If not 2010, latest 2011.
But wait, there’s more
