Hi all.  Although wearable computing and the technology surrounding it is fun
and cool, I thought that this newsgroup could use some good hypothetical
discussion.

I'm actually a technologist in an information technology consulting firm who
has been doing research into the benefits of wearable computing over other
computing types (e.g. PDAs, laptops, desktops).  The goal is to really
recommend the use of wearables to those clients who demonstrate needs that go
beyond other methods.  Now, I recognize that there are opportunities in such
industries as Defense, Manufacturing, and some Civil Services.	But, I would
like to see about going beyond those and into more business-oriented
industries.

So, I guess I'm looking for a spew session on where everyone sees wearables
being used beyond the general 'whatever' answer that's given most often.  How
are wearables better suited than other computing devices?

Anyone up to the challenge?
