1. Fax Machines – Hasn’t the scanner made this piece of equipment ancient history? Not only is a scanner more reliable, it can give you a digital copy, it can print, and it doesn’t require its own special dedicated number. These are destined for the Good Will electronic pile with the old TV’s.
2. Land Line Phones – I realize there are a few ligitament places that need a land line, but the average household might as well go all wireless, it saves money since most of us have cell phones anyway and it is much more portable, plus you don’t have to change your home phone number if you move.
3. CD’s / The Music Industry producing Albums – Why not just release songs as singles as you produce them?
4. Speaking of CD’s how about Portable CD players? – Honestly how portable are they? And now days you can get a low end MP3 player for the same cost.
5. US Postal Service, it pains me to say it because I love getting mail… but at 44 cents a stamp and rising every couple months it just seems like the system is on the fast track to failure. Obviously package services will remain around UPS and FedEx… but do we need a Government run system, maybe we should just let the private sector handle it.
6. DVD’s & Blue Ray – lets face it, I predict we will all be watching movies on memory sticks (like USB drives) within the next decade, so why invest in a Blue Ray Player?
