3D is cool but I wonder when that laser kit the police use to scan a crime scene will be in the shops. I love 3D models but it always seems a bit long winded getting all those polys into the computer. If something dosn't exist yes you need to create it, but these buildings are already there.

Give me a hand-held scanner, like the ones they use to read bar codes, give your local buildings a quick swipe down and bingo, fly down the street in Google Earth. Even fit it with a texture and bumpmap scanner so it makes everything look real. Ow yes, and give us all computers with cell chips to comput all the information.

Wishful thinking I know.
