It actually took quite a long time to mature from telephones to carphones to wireless phones and from tablets to mini computers and tablet laptops and then finally actual tablet computers that could have phones put in them. Remember the iPaq and the Apple Newton? That stuff had several failed launches before it was mature enough to be good enough and cheap enough.

Even Star Trek sometimes depicted multiple books with multiple pad readers.

This is what we'll really get...

I think you are looking at 2010 technology.
The demos i have seem of the google car with the lidar and the other whahisname sensor have no problem navigating through the rain.

Lidar can't see lane lines.

I was looking at the new Tesla but I am concerned I won't fit in the vehicle.  I am going to wait until they start production to decide.

If I was going to buy an EV I think I would take a long-hard look at the Chevy Bolt, which should be available by the end of the year (and without having to pony up a $1000 deposit for a two year wait).

Hyundai is going to make one based on a small SUV/mid-size sedan chassis, CC might fit into that.

[Brazen]

Just saw one in display in the shopping centre near work. Rather sleek.

Need a full size.  Those small SUV models and mid size cars don't work for me.

If that is the future I might have to just get a bike.

I saw the Audi electric SUV last year at the Frankfurt motor show and that was full-size.
