Even now our bodies and minds still have the main adaptations since the cavemen days (women are more sensitive to touch, men have thicker skin on their backs, etc...). It took generations to make those adaptions, but now, a few (hundred?) generations later our bodies still have those adaptions. How long will it take our bodies and mind to change once again? Or will we keep them until the end of human existance? Or has it started already and we just haven't noticed?

For the most part, it could still be several million years, at the least to finally look completely different, but everything on Earth is always evolving, even now, about 70% of Humans have disfigured jaws, fascial features, which some believe to be the next step in our evolutionalry process.
And since evolution is slow in adapting, we have quite a while to wait before we see what we finally turn into until the sun goes Nova.

Technology and medicine have stymied evolution. If anything is going to make significant alterations to the human DNA before our species runs its course, it'll be a deliberate action by us, via genetic engineering and designer babies.
