It’s coming! I can feel it! The next generation of mobile technology is going to be unveiled soon and you’re reading about it here first!

No, I don’t have any clairvoyance, although once I picked up the phone to call my sister and she was on the line. That was really weird, but it happened only once.

Also, I don’t have any insider contacts or spies within the ranks of the mobile device manufacturing companies. I’m completely out of the loop on technology coming down the pike.

Just say that I have a feeling.

My feeling is that soon a new set of super tablets will appear. I should be specific: Super-size tablets are coming. I’m not referring to convertible laptops, which are already out there, but rather to tablets in the 14-inch-and-up size. Heck, I see 21-inch tablets before the sun sets on the year 2014.

As people begin to realize that they can get all their “computer” work done using a tablet, they’ll start switching from PCs. That migration is already underway.

Eventually, those same people will want the convenience of the tablet, but miss their old widescreen LCD monitors. While having a mobile device is nifty, just as there are laptops and desktops, eventually consumers will clamor for large-format tablets. They want their widescreen to watch movies, read books, and play games. For those users, mobility comes second.

True, if you take, say, a 21-inch tablet and give it a Bluetooth keyboard, you effectively have a cheap desktop PC. But that user doesn’t want the full-on PC! They want a tablet, one that stays in one spot. Yes, that concept seems counterintuitive. That’s probably what’s keeping the manufacturers from developing such a device presently.

I recall how adamant Steve Jobs was about the original iPad’s size. He insisted that the 7″ tablet size just would not work. Yet today, the iPad mini is the best-selling model. The Nexus 7 is one of the hottest-selling Android tables. People definitely want smaller tablets. I think the opposite could also be true.

Especially for home-bound, Wi-Fi only tablets, the larger format could be the next big thing. The process will start with some manufacturer, say Samsung, coming out with a 14-inch Galaxy Tab. Then . . . expect the floodgates to open.

Remember, you read it here first.
