    A more affordable surface pro but made by samsung or Nexus 10 like specs and note 10.1 software on a tab. I like tablets now How about a roll up screen tablet, they keep teasing us with those things. Oh and a sub £1000 50" plus 4K amoled tv would be nice...

    No new things for a year. Hardware is already more ahead than it needs to be.

    Sharp's IGZO screen tech looks promising, as does OLED of course (though, as usual, the latter won't make the mainstream breakthrough that's always promised. Just hoping for more higher resolution monitors, higher refresh rates and lower prices really, to make up for the relative stagnation of the last several years...

    I'd like to see a 500gb SSD for less than £100 and with full SATA 3 performance.

    An amd cpu that can be competitive with intel. (I'm not a fanboy its just that I want the market to be competitive and actually get better quicker / give intel some motive to make their chips faster.)

    also 27" 120hz ips 1440P screens or even 1600P screens would be nice and that they dont cost the earth as well would be a good one.
