AT&T predicts the rise of Ebooks in 1993!

Found this while browsing the Epic Win site. It's kinda cool. If you start the video, it's the very first item that comes up. Yes, that's not how ebooks turned out, but it does foreshadow ebooks. What I find even more amazing is how well they predicted so many other technologies that we now take for granted, such as GPS, automated toll booths, online ticket purchases, video conferencing, biometric security, digitalized records, fully interactive touch screen interfaces, Video on Demand (ie, Netflix) entertainment right on your TV, remote learning via live TV, and much more.
