Musicians say that we cannot find anything new after the era of Bach & co.
Have we to accept the same idea in the area of scientific and technical inventions? Was the mobile phone the last real invention in our world?
There are several industries called "sunset industries". In our country, NOKIA and paper industry are good examples. Unemployment is the current trend in the R&D of these branches.
What is your opinions? Can we wait something really new in future? Or - is something new really needed tomorrow?

No, there is always room for improvement. If you are smart, go for it, I am sure one day we will all be driving hover cars or some crazy crap like that.

Not at all. There are so many things that remain. When it comes to discoveries and inventions, only human imagination and mind are the limits. Even if nobody is interested in any new inventions, just solving the problems that mankind faces today will require important new inventions. Only if people lose interest in exploration and research, will the process of inventions come to an end. That would be very unfortunate.

What?! No way. The need to innovate leads to invention.
Yeah, the nail has already been invented, but what about a nail that can help your house hold up to a hurricane? Ta-da! The Hurriquake nail!
Nails too low tech for you? How about a virus that kills deadly bacteria on meat, human organs grown in the lab, or tiny stick-on digital Memory Spots from Hewlett-Packard? It's dizzying keeping track of all the new stuff being invented just for the sake of innovation.

No everything hasn't yet been invented, since the mind is ever expanding, and with the modern lifestyle, there is always some other invention that will be needed.
With regard to science, and the science of medicines. It is essential that there be cures found for the dreaded diseases.
Inventions need to be urgently found in order that we harness natural phenomenon to help this planets energy resources.
I could go on and on listing what needs to be invented.

I think the next important thing has yet to be invented, the problem is that we don't know what it is yet.
Look at the rise of the mobile phone, of the internet, and before that the personal computer. In the fifties everyone thought they had what they wanted and none of this was even really on the horizon ;)

the new things are not always a good thing .we always find out we managed before with out them the mobile phone has it,s liabilities has well.It causes ignorance .Eg people at checkouts /driving /superficial calls and conversations in public.while money is to be made there will always be inventions or so called modifications like a smaller phone with more gadgets on them..Are they not trying to invent smelly TV programs .Handy if you like Farms etc see what I mean not good what for why TV is to watch not to smell.Some programs smell anyway they are crap

There are hundreds of things that exist solely in the realm of science fiction and fantasy.
These include Faster than Light engins, time machines, all sorts of things that would be important in space and the colonization. I do agree though that cell phones are pretty much as good as there gonna get.

This is the most ignorant question I have ever read. This sentiment has been with man since the begining of time. There are more discoveries and inventions in the future than in the past.
Amazing, but true.
We are like stone age men, compared to those who will live 100 years from today.

Well, no-one has invented a cure for the common cold, falling in love with the wrong person or blushing. So I think the answer must be 'No'.

Someone wanted to close the US Patent Office for this very reason........back in 1894.
You should travel a bit in the World - you will see a lot of needs that require filling.
As new technologies etc... emerge, possibilities abound.
Hope this adds to your perspective, a little.
