Cant you remember commercials where they were advertising the wearable computer? The screen was like a sunglass thing, and the keyboard and mouse was strapped to your arm. I still cant wait till those become commonplace.

"Google Maps is the best. True dat. Double true!"

Okay, that totally makes this the coolest thing I've seen in a while.

EDIT: Cuda, uh, no... This is much much more than a PDA.

If they get it smaller, with power to play halo on it and support divx, and other popular media formats, and music formats with internet... Ill buy it.

Fuck smaller.

I mean they will be so small you cant even see the damn screen. Its not worth it.

perhaps smaller as in less thick, the screen dimensions are great, but it could be thinner, thing looks like it weighs 5 pounds

Ageed.

Its like that handheld is trying o compete in size with the xbox. In a badway if you know what i mean.

Plus youd look like a faG walking around with that thing at your chest with the keyboard

Neither, i WAS joking

FOR ALL WHO HAVE SEEN THE VIDEO

The halo footage was not real, it was only demonstration footage. I also have some other things to tell you but i i cant remember.

Rember, about the only reason to get this... And its fake.
