Cmmercially viable (!) television? Ball-point pens? ABS canoes? "Reliable" weather forcasts? Jet airplane travel for the masses? Reliable refrigeration for transport of perishables? Waxless &/or steel-edged skiis? Multi-speed bicycles? Automobile seat beelts? Reliably uniform (mostly) highway systems? Quality photography for amateurs?
