Oops! I must add GPS (global positioning) as a standard feature of the first truly successful consumer wearable. Dunno how I forgot it in the last post.

This wearable will not run standard PC software because it won't have to. Advanced business-PC applications will, however, occasionally be desired in a consumer wearable. These applications will not be resident on the wearable. They will become readily available over the web, possibly even from your ISP.

Again, I see the consumer wearable falling outside the realm of Xybernaut patents. Xybernaut is an industrial product.
