The real areas of change are nanorobotics and AI.
Companies such as Zyvex and Novamente are working on nanomanufacturing and AI and they predict 5 or so years until products are available. Such products would allow for everyone to live disease and aging free, and have all the clean water and food they need, near limitless cheap energy from the sun, as well as shelter for everyone, and that's just the tip of the iceberg. Even if you doubt these products/technologies for some reason, get familiar with them because they are going to affect the future in a big way. An excellent start for the novice would be the books "Engines of Creation" (K. Eric Drexler) and "The Singularity is Near" (Ray Kurzweil.)
