Two ideas leap to mind as nifty, but untested.

1) true Cyranoids
	Need to deal with a car salesman, but hate haggling?  Got a friend
	who loves it? Get friend familiar with what you want/need/can afford,
	and go to the dealership with him across the street, both of you with
	wearables.  Friend has audio and video slaved to yours.  He feeds you
	dialog and/or pointers to bargain.  Add in the usefulness of web
	search for reasonable prices.

2) pseudo-telepathy 'hive mind'
	Have several wearable users hooked up via text or voice, in constant
	communication during a dsitributed task.  Use subvocal mikes to allow
	near-silent speech/
