Everyware Here Already?

Our world today already has the components to make everyware a reality which is also why we have devices that uses the intelligent user interface described by Everyware. But I think it is safe to agree with Gene Becker from HP Laboratories’ when he states that this idea is a “hundred-year problem” because although we will have a whole bunch of devices using RFID tags and ID sensors in numerous locations, there will always be room for a topic like that to grow, always be places to stick sensors. Just like technology today, we can set goals to having a “final” technology in our grasp, but it could be considered an never-ending problem because there will always be new technology to be thought of or discovered and invented. As thesis 53 stated, we do have the components that make our lifestyles capable of such “Everyware” devices but as more and more devices are used, more and more will be thought up and will need higher end components. This is similar to how programs that are running on today’s computers would have never been able to run on computers 10 years ago and 10 years from now, the computers will have us questioning on how we ever got by in life using the intelligent machines we are using now. As time goes by and technology grows, it doesn’t just “fill” up a room until we reach the maximum of growth, it’s more of a world in itself expanding everyday a little more and has no boundaries on how large it can reach.
