Will these catch on?  Apparently this country in the middle east which has lots of natural palm trees is now 3D printing some?

The municipality of mega-rich Dubai is to cross the city’s palm with silver once again, as it plans to deploy another of its successful “Smart Palm” technology hubs. The structures, of which this new 3D printed member will be the fourth, are palm tree-shaped, solar-powered technology hubs able to offer free WiFi, as well as phone and gadget charging. The municipality’s announcement of the fourth Smart Palm was made at the Gitex Technology Exhibition Week. The structure will be the UAE’s biggest outdoor structure to be created using 3D printing technology.
