Though iPhones are all the rage now, the SixthSense technology from MIT Media Lab may very well render them obsolete. SixthSense is a "wearable gestural interface" that allows users to make any surface interactive. Forget touch screens.
SixthSense is a mini projector, a camera, a cell phone, and the Internet, all in one. Need to check your email on the go? Simply draw an @ sign in the air and wait for the mail to appear on a table, a wall, or anywhere you choose. Want to take a picture but forget your digital camera? No problem. Just make a photo frame with your hands and SixthSense will save a picture of whatever's inside. You can even watch relevant videos while reading the newspaper or dial a phone number from your hand!
The technology is difficult to adequately describe so here's a video. No word on when SixthSense will be available to the general public or how much it will cost.
