Do you use the extended battery? If so, what is a realistic runtime? And how much weight does it add? How do you generally manage the power situation? (swapping batteries, external battery, etc?) Do you have Linux installed on it? I found this page that describes how to do it: http://nautilus6.org/doc/tc-vaio-linux-bsd-20041221-KuntzR-html/vaio.html Do you have a website with any information about your wearable so I can look at it?
