Try to keep your predictions to a couple years so we can see if they play out, just for fun.

Here are mine for now:

The next iPad will not have the bottom indented button. There will only be the screen, lock and volume on the side, and power button on the top. The same will apply to the next iPhone.

It will become the standard for phones to have more than one antenna within 2 years.

The cost of electricity in 4 years will be almost the same in dollars as it is now, even with inflation.

Dropbox will still be around, popular, and not bought out in 2 years.

Netflix will not use Silverlight in 2 years.

Ultrabooks will be common in 3 years and most will not have optical media drives.

Google+ will be around in 2 years but still remain dominated by tech 'celebrities'.

3d screens will not be popular still in 2 years.

I'll have to put some thought into some predictions, but the buttonless tablet/phone thing is already a reality. The Nexus Prime with Android 4.0 has no buttons on the face.
