Soon it may be possible to leave the keys and wallet behind
Some other interesting features discussed:
*Technology to enable cell phone users to send and receive money electronically.
*A monitor to allow your phone to track your blood sugar and notify your doctor if there is an issue. There are other apps that can check your pulse and one company has introduced a Blackberry application for EKGs.
*Accept credit card payments.
*Replace the TV remote

Also, I want one that can respond to my voice or command to adjust the room lights in the entire house - things like that.
What are some other possibilities? Maybe you've thought of something you'd like to be able to use a Smartphone for.
In addition to getting into a car or hotel room, you can also use your phone instead of a house key. Schlage's LiNK line of home locks include models that you can open or lock via a cell phone or the web.
you could check in [to a hotel] online before you leave and just walkto the room, skipping the front desk
