Howdy y'all. I've got something you guys might be interested in. I posted this article today as a way to get the general attention of the FOSS and MID communities in hopes that someone might be interested in creating a wearable PC in the near future. Given that I now know that Nokia is lurking this forum (wahoo! ) I thought I'd post it here to A) bring it to their attention in hopes they might do something with it, and B) get feedback from you guys on the idea.

The article was written for the purpose of saying "This can be done, so let's do it!" while showing that it is indeed possible to create such a device. Now, given that ultra portability is one of the focuses of the MID market, and especially with the NITs, I figure, since we're already working towards a device that is essentially one step short of a full blown PC in a MID form factor, why not take the additional step and create a wearable PC? What do you guys think?

Now I'm not trying to brag up my site, so don't mistake me for that, but rather I'm trying to kick up some interest in this idea, because I've wanted a wearable PC for years, and now that the technology has reached a level where that's possible, I think we should move ahead and make it reality. Plus, I know I'm not the only one who'd be interested in such a device.
