I think that the flight you are refering to was a two person flight, and they managed to go around the world, although they had some problems with fuel management. Although no one has even flown solo around the world, he thought that that would be too easy, so he decided to challange himself, and use a jet instead of a prop. I suppose this could lead to more innovation in the idea of engine efficiency, but not all that much else (not to say that efficiency is a small matter).
I have heard rumors about PMP (personal/portable media players) being able to hook up to the TIVO, and then you can watch it anywhere. If this would allow it, I think it would be great for Tivo, so anyone can use it to watch their favorite show anywhere.

I have a similar setup at my house, one thing that is useful is just to have a Network Attached Storage drive http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/category/c ategory_slc.asp?CatId=207 and just store all your music on there. Then connect all your computers to that (over 802.11a preferably), and you can install winamp or a similar program on the laptops, and access the drive, that way you have full control on each computer.
You could also buy one of these http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?id=1081512 624434&skuId=6584779&productCategoryId=pcmcat25300 050005&type=product and you would get the same effect (but without those laptops)

Umm, they already have that. That is why many new PDAs now are equipped with more powerful IRDA.d =1&jid=7F34EE79898E1E2646EDB463CAEX57F2&txtSearch= Universal+remote&optionId=1_2_2&platformId =2
