Mobile Gift Cards - software is downloaded to a smart phone such as a blackberry which interacts with a server to get your gift card information and puts an image of your gift card on the phone screen. Next time you go to buy forget the card touch the screen of you smart phone to the reader. New breakthrough idea came from Starbucks, Target and Home Depot, below is a link to the target site:

Eventually we can do the same with hairstyles and bald men the world over will rejoice at their mobile digital 'do's!

Could also work for clothing ("Dress Digital!"), food ("The Digital Diet Does Wonders for my Waistline and you never need to clean any dishes!") and has already been proven effective for pets ("Tamagotchi! My dog died through neglect and torture but no one can arrest me because I reset him!")
