<<<Two things the would-be criminal would know from any "wired" person in the crowd:

A) they have extra money to burn on gadgets.
B) it surely takes a major credit-card to belong to the "system". The
more elite it is the more likely the target will have money.

The less people involved the more of a wealth-beacon this item would be. Might as well wear a David
Letterman dollar-bill jacket and act surprised when you are mugged.>>>

(suit and tie == wealth) -> mugging

Methinks that someone dressed up like a cyborg would attract less criminal element. "I must find Sara Conner!" :)

As for the entire mugging issue, I live in peaceful Madison, WI where the only dangerous element is a drunken fraternity member...
