Wow, I remember watching these commercials when I was 12 and thinking "that's pretty futuristic." Now it's 2010 and most of these are just basic parts of life. The technologies in the end didn't exactly look like this, and ATT didn't spearhead the age of the internet either, yet the general concept of all these things (except for your home door opening to your voice) are reality today. In all, it's a fairly accurate prediction from 17 years ago.

Actually I saw the webcam phonebooths in Europe, they have those too. I think Vodafone provides that though... lol

Well in 1993 the world was the cusp of the internet boom, so it wasn't that hard to take a guess where digital technology would go.

In Dallas-Ft Worth, the TollTag allows you to drive right through toll plazas. Infact, State Highway121 doesn't even require TollTag, they take a pic of your license plate, then bill you a week later. 121 doesn't even have toll booths actually.
