IBM's Next Five in Five

It's that time of year again. IBM has published their end of 2009 "Next Five in Five," five innovations that will enter the commercial mainstream in the next five years that will have dramatic impact on all our lives. The five:

- We will be able to access healthcare remotely, from just about anywhere in the world

- Real-time speech translation-once a vision only in science fiction-will become the norm

- There will be a 3-D Internet

- Technologies the size of a few atoms will address areas of environmental importance

-Our mobile phones will come close to reading our minds
