I saw it too, Tom.

A small eye-piece at the end of a thin arm attached to the headset. It looked to be held an inch or two out from one eye and was no larger than a one inch cube. The PC is in a Walkman-sized case that can hook onto your belt.

Scroll down to PETITE PROJECTOR for a description of a reflective microdisplay being developed by the projection display team at IBM's Watson Research Center. Whether or not this was used in the prototype shown by Rukeyser, I don't know. If they choose CyberDisplay over their in-house stuff, that will be a huge endorsement for Kopin.

CyberDisplay: PC & Entertainment Systems

Recent update to the Kopin website covers IBM's wearable PC (concept).

As you see in the picture, there is a new ultra compact PC concept from IBM for next generation personal computing. This ultra small PC uses CyberDisplay 640 Color as the display for the monitor.

How about that! Is that a manikin or a real geek in the photo?
