Wearable Computers As The Wave Of The Future

from the I-want-one dept

Okay, so I'm still getting used to using the Danger Hiptop (aka T-Mobile Sidekick) in order to have web, email, and IM access from just about anywhere. However, that doesn't mean I can't drool about having a full wearable computing solution sometime in the near future. The Associated Press has an article talking about the International Symposium on Wearable Computers which is apparently going on now. As with any story about wearable computing they mention the guy who always has one on, and talk about just how cool these things will be in the future. The question I still have is how far away is that future?
