Intel's purchase of Altera is sure to lead to all kinds of innovation in this area. This is hopefully only the start.
To me it just seemed silly that we'd continually upgrade to get more dedicated circuitry for things like low-power video decoding. I know programming an FGPA still wouldn't be as efficient as it could be, but I think in the future it might be nice to have an FGPA available for adding things like x265 hardware decoding a year after purchase.
What I'd REALLY love to see is an FPGA in a Chromebook for students. School will be so awesome in the next decade.
