Handheld Augmented Reality
While I think that some sort of heads up display will be how Augmented Reality will unfold in the medium term 10-20 years, I think that some form of portable screen based technology will be required in the near term (5-10 years) for AR to really take off.
I found the Handheld Augmented Reality site (linked below) very exciting in this sense. They appear to be tackling the problems of offsetting AR processing where server resources are available, and have a number of apps (with pictures and a smaller number of videos) that give you some idea of what might be possible in the near future.
