I can tell you what paused me; Waiting to see how various newer devices played out like the UMPCs, iPhone, etc. but more importantly, HUD resolution and technology. The SV-6 works okay, but it's still too big and clumbsy for every day for me (and most people). Further, it doesn't have enough resolution for what I really want to do with it. Basically I found myself wanting to rebuild Mann's latest fiberoptic and laser back lit EyeTap set up. I think the world is moving along the wearable computing route via all sorts so other less explicit angles; iPhone, devices with GPS awareness (cameras doing geo tagging, Pocket PCs), bluetooth in ear speaker/microphones that are small enough to be worn all the time and have better noise cancelling and audio playback (Jawbone), those headsets talking to other devices (iPod, iPhone, PDA, UMPC), voice xml making slow progress, Vista's improved voice recognition on a UMPC, multitouch displays, etc, etc. The pieces are all still in play and moving, but the "wearable computing" strategy isn't explicitly called out in most of them. -saari _______________________________________________ Wear-Hard mailing listhttp://www.haven.org/mailman/listinfo/wear-hard
