What is the focus of the work you're doing (both you personally and GA Tech in general)? http://wearables.gatech.edu/ seems to be down right now. Is there concern about your work's potential lack of general-purpose applicability given the $4k up-front cost?

Could you describe your day-to-day wearable in more detail? What hardware makes it up? What software does it run? What do you use it for? How do you control it? What is your data/applications split between it and your workstation(s) and the internet? Do you still wear it when it's 95 degrees outside and you're going jogging? Etc.
