Prediction:

Electronic dust, the first true mass production dry nanotech device, will achieve publc eye.

Objective measurement:

Has electronic dust been mentioned in ten separate non-specialist media forms?

When:

2003

Why:

I've seen it for a long time.

Further comments:

Before the world of Eric Drexler and Nanoutopia, the mass amount of R&D must be funded somehow. Electronic dust is a term for highly versatile integrated devices that can be specialised for a wide variety of applications - hopefully wide enough to fund wet nanotech's R&D. Dry nantotech will bring wet nanotech.
