We spend lots of time 'looking up' stuff about everything and nothing, I can simply imagine an environment (meeting room) where one or more people have a meeting, collaborate on solving a problem, do homework, write software, do product research, etc... What's special about this room is that computer brain running the displays all around the walls, listening in for commands or keywords in a discussion and independently doing intelligent searches, data mining, aggregation, feeds, etc and displaying the results around the room allowing the human activity to progress towards its goal more efficiently. I'd call it BrainStorm. (don't know if the name is already taken by something else though!)
No only if they can make those sensors small enough to fit in an ear bud the apple and ms can use it to encrypt/decrypt music and video to your brainwave signature upon download. I can also see this being used in washrooms for hands free flushing...
