Just to explain question 1 a little bit more, what I mean by a system that they would call a wearable computer. What I meant to say was that how many people could someone walk up to and ask if they're wearing a wearable computer, they would say yes and understand the meaning (eg: I personally wouldn't consider a wrist watch that shows the time in 5 countries, though some might.) The average user of a PDA wouldn't consider themselves having a "wearable computer", they consider it more of a PDA. My personal opinion of how many people are wearing systems that they would consider a wearable computer is under 10,000 (that's including public and non-public usage).
