Being thinking about this for a fair bit. So how about:

On the area of cars, why can't we have a universal automatic drive system (I know this crops up in books all the time). And after a few experiences on the motorway, it should be so much safer, and it should make it far more efficient, especially as all vehicles could communicate to work out optimisation, etc.

How about a universal fast charge network for electric cars, that can recharge a car in say five minutes, built into almost every car parking place, and provided as part of the parking charge...

(Can you image the chaos cyber-terrorists could cause with the above two, items? -- hint, hint)

How about secure RFIDs on everything and multiple devices in the home that can triangulate locations, so that when, yet again, your better half tidies-up you mislay something you can ask the house and it will tell you where it is.

Oh, and fridge-freezers with at least a sensible level of reliability enforced by imprisoning liability for execs of companies, for the sake of the environment.... (sorry --- should be in Vent and Rant)
