* as envisioned by Delloitte Consulting Inc.
Introduction of ‘shop-bots’ that would search for products, compare prices, conduct transaction and ensure delivery

Digitization of products for enabling sale and delivery over network – e.g. application software, movies, music, journals etc.

Emergence of Commerce Service Providers (CSPs) - Stretching the transaction chain from front-end ‘web stores’ to back-office inventory and logistics management

Implementation of Priority Service Pricing Protocol - Optimal allocation of resources (viz. bandwidth) thus differentiating important economic transactions from low priority entertainment usage of Internet

E-Wallets and Digital Cash would bring the  the next big leap in currency and transaction methods after the dismantling of Gold Standard
