Anyone use a cell phone? My calls get garbled all of the time. Not so differet from garbled VOIP. I don't know that someone would be able to tell the difference between the two on the other end of the call. Annoying, but the benefits outweigh the irritation of garbled calls. Why can't we get clear cell phone calls all of the time?
I've got an idea. How about we do a reversal of what the media giants like to do to the consumer. Since the music industry gets a piece of the blank CD revenue because it's used to copy music, why doesn't the ISP's get a piece of the movie/music download revenue? It may be a bad idea but that is what they do to consumers.
The article that I have linked talks about high resolution full color two dimensional hologram projected on a flat surface. The purpose is to miniaturize video projectors, 2D holographic projection can be contained a much smaller package than conventional projectors. If it were so easy to do such a thing then I think we would see commercial products already.
We are getting closer. There is a special holographic processing engine developed by Light Blue Optics which converts a standard composite video signal into high-quality 2D holographic video, in real time. Apparently the technology is prime for being cheap. It is not yet powerful enough to run 3D but is a huge step in that direction.

Cost should come down with economies of scale e.g. someone commercializes a 2D holographic video projector.
