The ghost of Technology Yet to Come paid us a few visits this week. From what we saw, it looks like TVs in the future will be really tiny, RAZR… er, razor-thin, and ultra-high-def. We want one now. Plus everybody will be wirelessly streaming high-def video while playing Quake VII over the Net with no hiccups, thanks to the next generation of Wi-Fi equipment, which we hope will be compatible with the draft-N gear D-Link released this week. In our weekly column, we foresaw that e-voting will be a reality, too, though possibly not in the way you think. And to top things off, everybody will have their own personal cloaking device. Must be nice for that narrator in How I Met Your Mother. Some of the more presently minded tech news of the week:

Saturday: Arcade-in-a-Box brings classic gaming home, no quarters required
Sunday: Call of the rich: Phone made from ivory
Monday: USB scale knows you don't exercise; it won't judge
Tuesday: Video helmet may be most uncool gadget ever
Wednesday: Adjustable measuring cups provide premium portion partitioning
Thursday: Japan getting fuel cell trains, eventually
