[We do not have the handheld blinky-flashy things!  I'm guessing those are computers with wireless Network connections?  It's been predicted our society will get there but not for another thirty years - computing progress slowed down a lot after the first couple of decades when everything seemed so easy.  Mages would change everything though!  I'm guessing that interdimensional trade is not really possible because the trade networks would be all over both our planets already, but if we could actually open a portal between your planet and my planet, everybody involved will be very very very rich.  Do you have the concept of Ricardo's Law of Comparative Advantage where even if your planet has an absolute advantage in every sector of manufacturing, we can still both become richer by trading with each other because our relative costs to produce different goods are different?]
