This discussion can be two-fold: What devices and interfaces do you
find memorable from sci-fi you've read/seen? And/or how do you think
some of these ideas, or even some of your own ideas, could end up
being.
In other words, what do you love and how do you think it should
function.
There's a great list (1686 of them) of future inventions by sci-fi
authors at Technovelgy.com's Grab Bag:

If you haven't already read it I strongly recommend Charles Stross'
freely available Accelerando (http://www.accelerando.org/) - its
bursting at the seams with future interfaces and conceptual technology
for human enrichment.
Yep - another big fan of sci-fi fan stores here.
