Although items like the communicator (which led, perhaps, to a relatively inexpensive "Star-Tac") and others were based on what Roddenbery thought the future would be like,

unfortunately the transporter was created because Paramount(?) did not want to pay for the expense of landing the Enterprise on a planet each week. We might have to wait awhile on that one. I'll betcha it'll be a humdinger of an IPO though.
