[Wear-Hard] Yet another Sony UX based Wearable

[Brian Kuriyama]

Thanks! But something like that is definitely out of my current budget! D:
I've been looking around and found a similar, but much cheaper alternative:

In addition to that, I'm planning to modify one of those wireless finger
mice into a glove :3

A modified version of this, combined with that last link I posted configured
for text entry

Should yield very usable hands, with accurate cursor movenent and text entry
while walking or talking to someone.

Using a large (even cell phone sized) dedicated device for text input seems
to defeat the purpose of a wearable computer making it more obtrusive than
it's less powerful cousins. My ultimate goal is something that I can be
wearing, and using while still carrying on a normal conversation with
friends, without making it look like I'm playing a gameboy or something
while talking to them.
