It would be nice. The way I see it the price of an HMD is still prohibitive. CPU's are at the point where just about anything works... and there are plenty to choose from. Pointing devices and mini keyboards are a little hard to find at a decent price, but not impossible. My latest toy has been really simple: A Nokia 770 with an Orang-Otang wrist strap and a bluetooth GPS. Not a whole lot of customizing involved, but it is useful and wearable. I still predict that once an HMD is made commercially that doesn't look too bad, has QVGA or better, a standard connection such as USB, BT, or VGA, and can be bought under $200, the wearable market will pick up... ...at least one can hope.
