I did the sleeve display thing years ago, and I was kind of laughing when I read that article. It doesn't really make much sense to embed a display in clothing of firefighters, emergency crew, medical people, or farmers. Can you wash those displays? Don't medical people have to change garments all the time? Geez I thought my ideas and prototype were a bit phantastic, but these ideas are bizarre. In truth, the sleeve (or wrist) position is great for a display. Also, embedded hardware into jackets is very convenient, but not practical for a number of reasons. Here's my old sleeve. http://home.earthlink.net/~wearable/galleria/jacket/ > Farmers ??? My brother in law runs a program called "pig champ" :) He has a very high tech operation, probably one of the most advanced around here. Auto feeding, auto cleaning, auto everything. But wearables don't fit farming LOL -- Doug -- Subscription/unsubscription/info requests: send e-mail with subject of "subscribe", "unsubscribe", or "info" toWear-Hard Mailing List Archive (searchable): http://wearables.blu.org Please, *PLEASE* don't subscribe through a forward/expander/false domain
