'without distracting the subject' is in the eyes of the beholder. I went to a lecture given by someone from the 'wearables' group at the MIT Media Lab. His bathing and grooming habits alone were enough to distract you, let alone his perverse pleasure at having total 'recall' of conversations from the far past and trying to lord it over people as a self-proclaimed superiority...

iShades

Sunglasses with a built in iPod, but the glasses can also display video on the inside with the correct focal distance so it looks like an IMAX screen right next to your face

That would be cool

iBriefs... with the option to plug in your iPad for monthly updates.

[citation][nom]hillarymakesmecry[/nom]I really wish Apple would make a video game system. They'd sell like hotcakes regardless of the price and the competition would keep prices down. I'd like for someone to force 49.99 games. $60 is a lot of money. The next generation will probably be $75.[/citation]
Apple.

The Wii and the Xbox?
They are the 2 most popular and highest selling consoles...
By the way, aren't Sega games all over the Wii?

Oh, and just another point before this thread becomes a crazy console arguement, since when is a console "wearable" technology.

Maybe an advancement of the Nike iPod thing, perhaps a brainwave control device to replace the mac mouse, how about a range of Apple branded clothing with a PAN in it?

That would be fun, if nothing else, just to watch people walking into walls while watching a video on them.

Great Apple is going to flood the patent office with another flood of vague patents and sue anyone that comes close to duplicating it. Thus stifling another area of technology! Then release a mediocre product that will be touted as the best invention of the next century. Even though you can’t remove the battery or upgrade the memory!

wearable technology? Sounds like something I read in "Popular Science" years ago.
